| What do you mean Mike?
When you add preload dont you move the springs up, which in turn makes the car stiffer, as well as lowering it.... | |

| it does not lower it. it only puts a load on the springs. the height of the assembly does not get shorter (it actually gets longer if the spring was drooping before, raising the car)
and to think, i picked you to win over Das... | |

| When the springs are raised up, so is the collar, and then you can raise that bracket up, and that will LOWER the car...
I didnt explain it all the way I guess.
Raising the springs up higher allows you to raise everything else up, which in turn allows you to lower your car.
Thats what we had to do to Chris' car to get his a little lower. | |

| Ohh in that case I am sorry.
Try to find someone selling some used coilovers, and see if you can use their rear shocks on yours. | |

| Is that your permanent ride height or do you have one side jacked up or blocks under it or something.
If its permanent, good fucking job. Only took you years and years. | |
