Then the guy welded them together and melted the bushings that pissed me off.I ended up using the original ones from the stock shocks. Quote Link to comment
sssr20det510 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 ya i wasnt sure if you just cut the rear or what i need to do the same thing as my car wont go that low in the rear I also need to do the 7 inch springs still Quote Link to comment
DARIN 510 Posted December 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 ya i wasnt sure if you just cut the rear or what i need to do the same thing as my car wont go that low in the rear I also need to do the 7 inch springs still one little problem i had with the rear springs is since the springs are 7 inches long.the center part of the spring is rubbing on the inside of the tire wall.but it seems that other coil overs have this problem? I remember someone posting something about that. Quote Link to comment

Rustina 510 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 That isn't to hard to fix, I had te same issue in one of my 240sx, what I did was I chalked the tire, drive the car so it rubbed, then I took the tire off to see where it rubbed, then I cut tue inner wheel out and re welded new metal to give more room. It worked like a charm, my dad did the same thing to his 240z but he just use a big mallet and banged it out, quote " nobody see's that shit anyway" lol Quote Link to comment
