people with coilovers help me outt!@#$%
okay, so i dropped my car as much as i can get it to go. only problem with that is that the front sits higher and there is not much more adjustment that i can do to it. how can i get the front to even up with the rear?
here is the product im left with.

i got the same problem, but it suits me well because when i go over a speedbump, my oil pan and filter are like 1/2 inch from scraping, my front is about 3/4 inch higher than my rear, but only i can tell, your xb looks sick
Leave it...If you look at the overall line of it (levelness?) you will see that it sits pretty darn level as it stands now...It looks to me like you have the same distance from the ground to the rocker panel in both the front and rear, but I'm also old and blind
...By the way, your ride is SICK!!!!!

You car looks level to me, i think it only looks like its not level because the rear quarter panel comes down over the rear wheel more. A lot of cars come like this and becomes more noticeable one you lower it. Also the bottom of our front bumpers have a slight curve up towards the front of the car.
Car looks dope BTW

your first prob is the Ksport...
the second issue you can try is reheating the springs slightly allowing the metal to slowly bend under weight but that should only be done with someone with experience doing that.
your other option is IF your ksports have a 2nd locking ring u can remove it BUT at the cost of your normal ring spinning from time to time OR putting a load on the 1 locking ring that in time might bind.
you can also do it the hialeah way and cut your springs and readjust your suspension via the rings to compensate.

You can tinker with the preload.
Right now, I have the feeling you are running positive preload on the spring. You can ride like I did with a little negative preload. You might not get much more of a drop, but you can.

secondly.. of course reheating the springs will change the spring rate but he wants options so there he has it (wether he does it or not those are things people have done in the past to gain that extra 1" or half inch he needs, ive done it many times but you have to know what your doing, there actually is a real way to do that with out changing the rate so drastically. its common done on hot rods, some domestics, and even a few supras ive worked on in some of the larger shops here in fl...
my first sentence was that Ksports were his problem... naturally anything coming afterwards would be a hack way of getting it done.
funny you pick probably the safest out of the 3 options i mentioned net neglected to see the one with the biggest safety issue would be eliminating one of the rings lolol....
