CR-V suspension * anything and everything suspension*
I know there's a V thread already but figured I'd make one strictly for suspension. Pictures a plus. How is everyone going about dropping or lifting their V's

Or you can at least scrape the lifted thread before expecting everyone to add the info they already posted a few times elsewhere.

-96-00 Civic stock front shocks
-Stock rear CRV shocks
-aluminum shock tops that extended shock travel 2"
-Typical eBay aluminum coilover sleeves for 88-00 Civic.
- Summit Racing 7" tall 2.5" diameter coilover springs. Spring rates are 550 in/lb front and 350 in/lb rear. Incredibly perfect rates for this thing. Full coilover kits run way too high of a rate.
-Generic eBay adjustable rear camber arms. (not installed in pictures, rear camber out of wack).
-Shaved front upper control arms.
-99-00 Civic Si front/rear sway bar bushings.
-17x9" wheels with 28mm offset and a 215/45 Falken tire.

Re: CR-V suspension * anything and everything suspension*
I think the lifted thread covers that topic very well. I wouldn't object to a lowered thread that covers those options

Re: CR-V suspension * anything and everything suspension*
Im new to the CRV thing. Im rather glad this thread is here.
Ive looked into the lowering, asked a question in the pic thread (and got my answer)
But a friend of mine has a 99 with immaculate leather interior. Ill be buying it after the holidays and looking to make a DD out of it. Lowering, wheels/tires,tint and stereo is all ill be doing.
Im looking forward to seeing more on this thread.

I ran Form & Function type 2's on mine from a integra. Drove really nice and was not bouncy at all.

Re: CR-V suspension * anything and everything suspension*
by buying either megan or ksports coilovers or using the element coilover but you need to switch out the tie rod ends into element ones. thats what i have found so far.
