Hey guys just got done with my new suspension. I went with koni yellow shocks and h&r race springs. Also is the front suppose to sit that high the bumpstops are cut in half all around.

After





As you can see the front sits higher than the back any idea of whats going on.

 

Please make your thread titles subject specific:

For example, you should mention in the title about the front suspension riding too high. I edited the title for you.

 

My bad man and thanks

 

it's called reverse rake and if you got adj. coilovers/shocks just even it out either raise the rear or lower the front... my ej1 with eibach springs has more reverse rake than that so guess your lucky lol

 

Springs might be in backwards. Usually the front should be lower.

 

im positive the springs are not on backwards the rears have an R and the front have an F. Any other ideas of wats going on i still have a lower perch setting i can move the front but im affraid im going to be too low for a DD.

 

Let the springs settle.

 

May need a bigger heavier engine swapped!

 

On the koni's you can either raise the back up or lower the front. Your choice.
If your afriad the front will be to low then rasie the rear pearch up.

 

Bump

 

When installing the front struts u made sure it went all the way down the fork?

 

OP, could this be your answer? because it certainly appears like something like that...

it shouldn't be like that at all.

do you have a pro-kit or sportline?

the pro-kit lowers the car almost .25" lower up front vs. the rear.

 

Keep the front where it is at and raise the back.

Anybody else have any ideas I'm going to take of my front wheels and take some pictures to show you guys and see if you can tell if anything is wrong.

Hope this helps any input is very helpfull

 

Pictures dont show anything besides what springs and shocks you have.

Rasie the pearch on the rear and be dont with it.

 

I could do that but I really like the height of the back just wish tha front would be a lil bit lower

 

Then drop the front, it's only like a 25mm difference, so like half inch higher or lower

Personaly id raise the back, the front looks perfect. However you can always try each drop the front/raise the back, it will just be a little time consuming.

 

Yea good point could the problem be that I tighten all the bolt with the car in the air

 

nah.

i vote for raising the rear perch too; i'd be willing to bet ~1.5" would be ideal, which is what the front looks to be in the later pictures. the intial pictures are either strange from the springs not yet settling or the weight transfer of being parked on an incline...or something. but the later pictures apparently show the current stance.

the rear is entirely too low to offer the best handling, regardless of the front.

 

that wont raise or lower the car, however you should be jacking up each coner and tighting it everytime you remove a suspension part, unless you have poly bushings.
Not doing so can and will tear up the bushings.

 

did you clock the suspension before tightening up all of the bolts?

 

Your fronts are not on the lowest perch. there you go case solved.

 

love your exhaust btw.
