Hi Guys, Ive redone my front suspension setup but having a whole load of problems with it.
So Ive taken off the OEM mounts and put on the Baker BM top mounts. ive also fited the adjustable drop links.
I set the ride height to be the same as it was before but it was a lot lower. I raised it once and Ive raised it twice because it kept bottoming out all the time. Its not bottoming out all the time now but on big bumps its bottoming out really hard. So hard that this evening it activated the knock switch on the fuel pump!
Ive raised the car to higher than it was before but its still doing it! What can I do?
The damping is on max which doesnt exactly solve anything.
**SOLUTIONS**
- Im running 250lb springs, could go to 300lb but i like the current spring rate.
- I could raise the car more but the front will be a lot higher than the rear...
- I could get the shaft of the shock turned down in a lathe... however this would mean having them off the car and sending them away which I dont have time for!
Thoughts and advice please D:
