Finally got all of my parts together for the new coilover setup and ran into a little snag. For giggles, I purchased a floater/slider to go with each helper spring to keep everything aligned, but on trial fitment, I notice that the slider hits the adjustment collar before the helper is fully compressed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) . There is no way that is correct (see below) and this will fail over time.
A floater isn't really needed, so it could be run without one or part of the floater sleeve could be removed to eliminate the interference. Anyone else run into this?   |
