Re: Lift Question - Struts and Spring specific

Body roll is minimal on the cobra, they are progressive for comfort. Give a decent lift.

I also have a ultra racing 19mm rear sway bar which helps road manners

Re: HELP!!!Blower not working!!!!

Are you getting 12v or "around" 12v to the motor? All full speed.

If you are getting a supply then I would look at your earth for the blower motor.

Re: *Official H/T OFFROAD/LIFTED CR-V thread!*

Shocks wont change the height at all, only springs can do this. If your suspension is old then it will be the springs that have sagged rather than the shock
