Man today sucked and thought that i would tell yall about it. Well i was putting my EAI cylinders on the front of my box and I hadn't hooked up any air to them yet and wanted to see how low it was. Well i lowered the jack and it wasn't low at all so i started to back it out of the garage. When I did something was making a grinding noise and i didnt know what it was. I turned the wheel left and it stopped then i turned the wheel right and heard a loud pop and the passenger side slammed to the ground. I got out to see what the heck had just happened and the fender was bowed out real bad and there was a very nice crease left in the fender. So I jacked it back up to find that the cylinder was resting on the top of my wheel where theres a little lip and when i turned it no longer rested on it and it fell!!!!!! So now i need a new fender and a differant offset wheel. Oh yea and tomorrows a car show that ive been getting everything ready for. Any ideas or comments let me know. I'm going to pick up some spacers tomorrow to see if that will help. Some of yall will call me stupid but you would have done the same thing!!!

 

Lets hear what you have to say about my misfortune

 

Sorry about your trouble but you didnt check underneath after the install? First off I wouldnt Just jump in and start driving until I made sure there was clearence.. Thats air ride install common sense ..

Do you not try to give them air before you start moving the vehicle ?

 

Ok all i did was lower the jack and nothing happened so i backed it out of the garage enough to see what was going on its not like i was driving i was sitting still. My garage is small and i counldt see under there very well.

 

wow, thats terrible!

 

Again sorry to hear that man

Just make sure you test clearence and always look under to make sure nothing gets in the way before letting it down and when you do go easy with it and test out the air before moving it at all
