Apologies if this is a repetitive question but the search function isn't great on my mobile!

I've finally got round to fitting my coilovers today, and i just want to satisfy myself on something that's on my mind.

I've not gone that much lower, maybe dropped 20-25mm absolute max. I ordered a pair of driveshaft spacers as i felt i'd probably need them. Anyway, the long and the short of it is.. i've taken the car for a drive post fitting and no noises or vibrations to suggest the shatfs have moved too much.. Is it worth fitting these spacers or should i leave things alone if they're behaving?

Thanks in advance

 

I didn't replace mine at a 25mm drop but when it was dropped to 50mm it felt like I needed to .... as I am back to 25mm max drop now it feels perfectly fine.

 

Same question: I fitted coilovers with about a 20-25mm drop at the rear about 5 years, and 80,000 miles ago and have had no problems whatsoever with driveshaft vibration. Do I need to buy some spacers?

 

if it aint broke....dont fix it...

 

Yes....

 

Thanks guys.. I'll see if they're returnable I think, I see no reason to waste my time fitting bits I don't need to!

 

Does anyone ever read the US forums on here?

 

change the driveshaft cups from one side to the other. dropped well more than 50mm with no issues

 

I've now done over 40k miles with my Meister R's on and its low enough that I couldn't clear a coke can in the road. Never fitted spacers as I haven't needed to. (Yet)
