I'm gonna b dumped soon, n ive heard alot about the control arms hitting the frame or whatever it's called. Ive experienced this on my old ef and nissan. but have yet to experience this with my eg, my sleeves are set as low as can b with my current suspension.

My plan as of now is the f&f type 1's, will the UCA's bottom out from slammage?

I made a thread about this a little while back... I have since padded the UCA and went lower :thumb:

low enough to say it hits strut tower over pebbles!!

and still can go lower most ppl keep the bump stops in and cant figure why they cant go lower ... take em out and gain atleast an inch!!!

simply clean slammage!

why is that, will f&f type one's not take it to the ground? i'll b on fatfives with 50 series tire. n damn i thought -2.8 was alot of camber for a dd.

@wicked- i just go around them

@trailertrash- lol... im tryin to do everything right this time around. i'm tired of having issues, they keep stopping me from movin on to the next mod.

edit: anyone ever heard of these

Its not that the coils wont drop it cuz they all will but its the fact that if u bottom them out your control arm will touch towers....if u pad them that means they touch faster so in return they have less space to go up thus making u higher off ground and also your coil spring wont be fully compressed

And yeah bigger better speakers help plus it fun watch girls in passenger seat bounce haha
