3169, POST-spring install question
Posted by alexries, Jul-08-01 05:44 PM
Hey I installed my front springs (left the back stock for now, just for fun, looks cool BTW, anyway) so when I tightened the nut on the top of the shock it went all the way to the end of the threads before I hit spec torque, this happen to anyone else? Also I didn't cut the bumpstops.

They are H&R sport springs BTW, and the drop is 1.5 front, LOOKS TIGHT!!!!

Same here, I know it really doesn't matter but I figured I'd ask just incase.
