Had the shop put new 85lb springs and Bilsteins on the car and it's definitely riding high. Tech set the snap ring in the same spot as old shocks and suggests I should let the new eqpt. "settle in" before thinking about adjusting. Is he right...or should they be adjusted?
Seems like if the new gear is "settling", it's wearing down. And if he's right, how much time is needed? Of course, it's not a big deal...but I'm just trying to have the car look/handle as stock. Rides a bit stiff now but a definite difference in handling. I freaking love driving this car.... Thanks! |
