I'm lowered on coilovers and sometimes my UCA claps on the wheel well. It's either shave the UCA or cut the wheel wells. Any body have any pictures with the wheel wells cut?

 

Try raising the ride height instead of cutting up another golden era Honda.

 

Look at your shock tower from the wheel well, and look at where they’re hitting.

Drill a hole in the center of that.

Now look in the engine bay where the hole you just drilled.

cut out a 3”x3” square from that area.

Go take a drive and see if it still hits.

even better, compress your suspension and measure how high the UCA protrudes.

Take that measurement and create a cap out of some sheet metal and weld your shock tower back together.

Paint it, and enjoy.

 

Golden era, sure. Golden car? No. It's a beater car.

 

right on!! Thank you for the how-to. I do not own a welding set up and I know paying a shop to fab up some cups and weld them in would cost more than I'm willing to spend. In your opinion would it be safe to just leave the holes open? I don't mind how it would look.

 

It can cause the shock towers to tear over time, it’ll start to rust, it looks ugly.
