Adam Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 They are defs worth the extra cash mate, 60mm will probably be enough at the front, but you will probably want to go lower at the back. Plus it gives you the option to be able to fine tune your ride height until you are happy with it. You never know, 60mm might be too low for you, but 50mm might be just perfect.

stu_ Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 sweet cheers for the advice guys think ill get some of these on pay day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electricpanda Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I have the adjusters out but the blocks still in just so the spring doesn't fall out. Like thisSits like this Im scared now, I never put that back in, just sat it in the cup! Is it dangerous? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Should be fine but if it were me I wouldn't remove all of the adjuster. Though loads of people on here have and I have never read a bad post about it, just a personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Me personally, i would leave the cup/block in so the spring has somewhere to saty seated when you jack it up etc. I also remember reading something on here saying that the spring could eventually cause wear on the rear beam if it doesn't have a block underneath it.

deathhead Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) Ive never had any of my rear adjusters fitted and its fine. They've been in for mot and straight back out again.It certainly won't fall out when jacked up either as the damper is shortened.

electricpanda Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 The spring could eventually cause wear on the rear beam if it doesn't have a block underneath it. Well I don't want that to happen. It sits so much nicer without the adjuster, the block probably won't raise it up much? Might put it back in for peace of mind..

Adam Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I'm not sure how true it is, but i suppose its two bits of metal pressing against each other so they are bound to corrode eventually, especially as the spring isn't fixed and it is just rubbing and vibrating on the chassis.

electricpanda Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yeah suppose thats logical. You reckon I could get like a flat rubber circle, sort of like a coaster and put it between them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Not sure really, how much lower is it without the block in? The original spring has a rubber block which attaches the spring to the beam, so maybe you could source them? I don't know if they are any smaller than the metal block from the coilover though.
