This requires the following tools:. Jack up the car and remove the front wheels. Once the wheels are removed, open the hood of your car to begin the process of tightening the top perch of the coilover. While holding the top perch with the Spanner Wrench, use a ratchet or torque wrench to tighten the top-center shaft nut. Once torqued, you will feel resistance. Tighten to snug, do not over-torque.
Repeat the same process to the passenger side coilovers to ensure balance. Once complete, replace wheels back onto the car and allow the car a couple of minutes for the coilovers to set. Give a test drive and feel the difference of how smooth it is compared to the bounce it had before. Trust me, this relieved so much stress in my life. However, the process was very fun to figure out. Your bouncy issues should be fixed! Disclaimer : I am not liable for any damage or injuries caused with the modification of your car.
This post was made from personal experience and should be read as a guidance and not professional work. I complete work on my own car and I understand the risks.
I undergo a lot of research and spoke with Tein customer service for confirmation. These things have been a pain for the past 3 weeks. Originally, I had it set to 6 clicks from full stiff, andI now know that was a bad idea. Especially after installing my new wheels.
The installation of the wheels were flawless, definitely a huge thanks to my friend Daniel. With the new wheels on, I now have to factor in the weight, adding to the bounciness. After many hours of research and endless tinkering, I have been able to find out that you must complete these steps in order to see huge improvement with the stability of your suspension set up fresh install of coilovers or installing aftermarket wheels :.
It should be jarring bumps though, not bouncy. I love the look, but I don't think I'm going to enjoy the ride when I'm in the car for 4 or 5 hours. Could I swap some tein s-tech springs onto these coilovers? ZachUA said:. You'll adapt to it. You'll get used to it. But riding in another car without performance suspension is like a dream come true.
So soft. Don't feel the bumps I normally feel. I have heard that after a while the springs will soften up by themselves, and ride quality will get better. I've only been driving my car with springs for three months so i dont know if its true or not. They arent that bad. Sure its bumpy on certain roads but having the excitement and the ability to handle around those corners is well worth it to me.
And for those long hour trips Ask your mom to borrow her car. Also I am curious about the adjustment on these. There are two places you can adjust. One is at the bottom you can loosen the collar and spin the bottom sleeve up or down. The other you can loosen the collar that butts up against the bottom of the spring and raise it up or down. Are both of these to adjust the cars height? Or is one for height and the other for springrate or something?
The shocks on these are adjustable. Not sure if they are as good as the agx tho?
