^^^^^ do you have a pic of your car at the highest point???????????????
i want to compare that to stock. i have mine (stance coilovers) in the garage for 3 weeks, but can't install them cause if my wife knows, the chocolate factory could be close for more than a month. and that's a BIG NO-NO.

and which is easier, front or back?? since i guess i'll be doing 1 side first then the other on another day.

 

i say the rears are the quickest. just two bolts and lower the rear beam pop out the springs.

 

yeah i would like to see the coilovers at its highest ride height

 

thanks for the answer. Now I need to see the gap diff

 

if i didnt have to measure the ride height and everything i would have had the rears in, in a half hour. honestly they are both easy to do you just need to take your time measuring. when you measure the first time its a rough guess and then when you set your car ont he ground you make the final measurements. i think the highest setting is right at stock ride height. your suppose to leave a minimum of 2" of the threaded shaft inside the housing.

yes togue factory is kind of pricey. theres a few shops that do corner balancing just have to remember. my buddy withhis track mustang goes somewhere. andrews race shop sells a lot of road racing stuff so they are a good source of info.

 

i installed my coilovers finally and I HAS STANCE:P
rear and front can still go lower

 

damn sick stance!

 

wow that is low!!! how much farther can it go?

 

Damn, I wish I could afford coilovers.

 

im not sure how others installed it but when i first dropped the rear all the way my fenders would be even with the top of my rim so rear tires would be fully tucking, and a good amount of space for the bump stops.

as for the front i can go as low as almost the top of rim matching the fender, i didnt wanna drop it reallly really hard until they settled, but this is pretty low already, also i got 6kfront springs and 6k rear springs, not the 5k rear that comes factory. then front dampening i have it how they came factory and rear i have it set to 12 clicks towards hard

 

^^^ from neutral they are 8 clicks front and 8 back. So my guess you are 4 towards stiff.

 

yup, i didnt no about nuetual so i went all the way left (soft) then counted 12 clicks right (hard)

 

stance website tells about it in the faq section.

 

Stance looks great
cant wait till i get some one day and drop it all the wayhaha

 

the stances i believe can go low enough to where teh car isnt driveable lol. idk though

 

I'm not sure how your doing this lol. Are you using stance coilovers? I'm almost sitting on the bumpstops in the rear and the perch is screwed down all the way (ie lowest setting). I've only got about 1/4-1/2'' left to move lower on the front.

 

the bumpstops are ment to go inside the perches in the back.....something i learned lol. allows you to literally slam the ass end down haha.

 

They do, but I don't have that much room left. There is no more room on the perch to go lower anyway. I'm not sure what he did different.

 

how did you install them?

 

did ou drop the shock body a lot or no? just remember being slammed that low isnt good for your car nore handling.

 

I have the bottom part of the shock screwed in about 1 1/2'' onto the body if that's what you're asking.

I don't really see what it could hurt. I don't think there is too much of an angle to affect the axles. I couldn't tell you about handling, honestly. I haven't been in any auto x events or road races. I would like to this summer though.

 

for the front i didnt touch the top perch which stance says dont adjust because its only for spring load, so i just moved the bottom mount up/down depending on how low you want it, than lock the bottom perch to the bottom mount.

for the rear i installed it with the springs and the ride hieght i wanted it at then matached the shocks to it.

kinda hard to discribe it lol

 

Here's the problem though. I thought I had more room to go lower in the front but I clearly don't lol. The back is the same way. Maybe there is something different between the sc and tc that I'm not thinking about.



By the way, did anyone get dustboots for there coilovers?

 

i got dust boots on the rear only..... the only real difference i think that would effect how low the lnf sits vs the lsj is the lnf's have a different knuckle up front. i dont know if that would change how the cars sit from the factory which would later alter how they sit on coilovers.

 

Stance recommends that you don't mess with the upper perch
