Rear Lowering Options


Recommended Posts

doesn't kalvin have shorter springs in the front??

He must cause his looks lower than mine. I just got these coilovers and im about 1/2 inch from maxed out in the front. The only way to go lower is to get shorter springs otherwise the bottom of your coilovers will be hitting your axles. I removed my adjusters in the back and made new brackets to hold the springs in because the OEM ones wont work. I can post pics of my wheel gap if your interested in doing this assuming you havn't already.

how/where did you get the custom brackets to hold them? right now i still have the perches on in the back with the adjuster collars spun all the way down..

I took some a piece of steel metal and cut it into a rectangle. The length was somewhere around 4 inches and the width was around 3 inches. I drilled a hole in the center and placed it at the bottom of the spring and bolted it in. I used a lock washer and some locktite as well to make sure its secure. You can get the metal from a hardware store.
