flintMicaTC,
When you had your ksport on, how low did you have it set and did you rub a lot with your 19"

 

well i spent a good 3 hours dialing in the right height, the rears never rubbed but the fronts needed to be set just right. it'll take some time but you'll get the hang of it

 

love my k-sports

never had a problem

customer support is great

pricing is awesome for an awesome product

install was a _____ on mine cuz the bolts were tough to take off, had the stock suspension for 40kish so tahts why.

 

StreetStarsTc,
Do you have any pics you can post up.

And did any of you guys do anything special to prep them before installing like for example put some anti seeze on the threads or somthing of that nature?

 

me.... nope, nothing special. just some power tools..

 

Hey, what are these for??




and another question is whern I try to adjust the Dampening adjuster for one of the front coilovers it just spins and does not do anything. The base is loose compared to the other one. Does anyone know what may be the problem?? And what is the purpse for those 4 nuts??

 

those black strips are to replace your brake line brackets....

those four bolts are for "camber adjustment" they dont really mean anything....just set them a lil negative and then go to alignment shop...dial them in to equal...then get your toe aligned...carve some corners...

 

Is it vital to install those black things and is it easy? Is it for the front? How soon after i install them should i get an alignment? So everytime I lower it or raise it I have to get it aligned? If so that sux...al lot of money.

 

honestly yes...but they are easy....i didnt receive those so i had to fab up some...uh depends on how much you plan on varying the height...if you adjust it 1 or less then i wouldnt worry about it...probly could get away with 1.2" without it...but trust me just spend the time while installing and pick a heighth you like then drive around...raise a lil if you have to then go get aligned...and leave it...the more you fiddle with the better the chance of ____ing stuff up....(from a handling dynamic point of view)

 

Understood. Thank you very much. I will need more of your help once I start the installaion. I am a little nervous. And do you leave th adjuster rod in when you finsh with the installation? And does the Dampening adjuster really make a diffrence? You can actually feel it harden or soften?

 

didn't do anything special. just broke a socket or two lol

and what pics? pics of how my car sits now?

 

alright man pm me and ill give yo my cell and you can txt me if you have problems...i leave them in...

and somewhat of a difference...

 

StreetStarsTc, yeh pix of your ride sitting on ksports.


blackcherry07, I will do that and I really appriciate it.

 

Do the brake line brackets go on the front or the rear?? And how do thay install? Another question how do you even out the drop if my drive way is uneven, do you adjust the height before installing them or what??

Thanks, still trying to tie up all loose ends before I install. I want to installl them this friday,still a little nervous

 

old pic

don't mind the horrible tow hook

 

 

^ Looks good did you install them yourself??

 

well no actually, had the shop that does the "extensive" stuff on my car do it

took them a while, i didn't have a compressor or anything, nor the tools.

my old suspension (stock) was on for 40k miles. all the corrossion n stuff.

man it was a _____ to take the bolts off.

 

front....when you remove them it will make more sense....i dont know how they are supposed to install exactly b/c mine didnt have them...i made some out of some stuff i had laying around...

you really cant get it perfect if the surface you are on isnt perfect...

but hey pm me for my cell number and i can txt you thru it and friday i will probably be painting my wheels so i will have them off and can send you pics if you need any....

 

One more question how do you adjust these bad boys can you give me a run down on what does what. Thanks

blackcherry07, I also pmed you..
