i have a 2000 hatch sittin on H&R RACE SPRINGS, i finally installed my yellows this weekend...both the front and rears have problems...

for the rears i set them on the highest perch, and now it sits lower like 1 inch...isnt it suppose to raise it?? why did it go lower??

for the fronts, i didnt mess with the height settings at all, and it now sits higher like 2 inches

i want it to look like how i had it when i just had the springs on. now its all messed up..anyone have these problems with there yellows?

 

Which way do you have the perch on? There are two ways you can put them on, one where the part where the spring sits on the top of everything and one where the spring is on the perch and the small end of the perch is sort of in the spring. I don't know if that makes any sense its sort of hard to describe.

 

I dont' know if this would matter, but the neuspeed koni yellows were made for neuspeed springs becuase of the # of perches I think, and then their are regular koni yellows for use on the non-neuspeed springs. I could be totally wrong though.

is this true??.....then would i have to buy neuspeeds??

 

Check your perches first.

 

man i have a feeling that u flip the perchec up side down.
specially for the front. I did that and realize before lowering the car.
as far as neuspeed koni are made for neuspeed springs, that is not true.
Koni neuspeed are more suitable for lowering springs since normally the springs is shorter then stock springs.

nope^^ i found my problem, when i first got my shocks, i was really excited and took everything out, then i accidentally switched the perches...the front ones are on the rear. and the rear ones are on the front. easily fixed i just have to take apart all the **** again, and put everything back...should be done in like 2 hrs, now that i know what to do.
