I finally ordered my Espelier ASD springs from Evasive. They are supposed to be here on thursday so hopefully i can get them installed this weekend. I hope these will give me the drop im looking for...

hmm whats my next mod.... maybe an oem lip!

 

good luck with the install

 

Let me tell you about front lips.

Stay away from McD's parking lots!

 

Well I pulled out the front shocks and struts, went to Autozone rented the spring compressor and got the fronts all set in about 2 hours...I'll finish up the back tonight!



im just a little worried that when i took the first spring off the strut I spun the inner shaft of the stut about a half turn because i didnt put an allen key in the top of it while loosening the top seat for the spring. i turned it back a half turn hopefully it doesnt mess anything up

 

You didn't mess anything up



Only time you can mess the shaft up is if you used a impact gun and the shaft unscrewed from the piston inside .

 

awesome exactly what i wanted to hear!!

thanks scott

how do i pre-load the shocks???



just jack up the suspension before tightening all the bolts

 

Assemble everything but dont tighten everything yet ,

Take the jack and place it under the lower control arm and jack it up so all the weight is on the jack .

Now tighten everything to spec

 

well the rest of the install went great!
didnt run into any problems... thankfully

and overall im very happy with the drop
the ride is pretty much the same maybe just a little stiffer

i need to get some pics up



and by the way dont lean on the fenders they seem to dent very easily another ding

either me or my dad somehow must have leaned over into the engine bay not realizing it and put a small dent in my fender

 

Can't wait to see some pics. Yeah the fenders are very thin.
