Got Koni adjustables now up front, will be lowwering the car also by adjusting the torsion bars (will be adding 195 50 series tires, already have rear taken care of.
Each front strut has a tripple bubble rubber stop on the top of the shock. I have heard that if the car is lowered a certain amount, that one or two "bubbles" of the rubber stop need be removed, else you hit them all the time when lowered? What's the deal with the rubber stops? should they be cut down for a lowered car, and how much per lowering of the car? (one inch per inch or???) thanks |

NO.
I know this because I ruined a nice set of Koni's Running too low. Bottomed out the suspension blasting down the freeway to New Orleans and WHAM! This was with 17mm torsion bars. My 21's are so much stiffer that I don't think I'll have that problem now. I am also running the full length Koni foam snubbers. 1200 miles this weekend and never had any problems. |
