Thank you for making a quick, simple video. Someone else made a 13min video on how to do the same thing😊

Simple and straightforward

Bro this video is amazing never thought id find a video straight to the point like this… you earned a sub👍🏻

You made the best damn youtube video on how to adjust your coilover ride height! All the others suck.

Thanks! That actually means a lot bro!

Lemme just vent real quick I have a 05 rsx type s fully built turbo everything I got it pretty low on some BCs and at the front of the neighborhood I live in they just installed the most cursed speed bump in all of existence like it’s 4 inches tall and not even 3 wide so it just shoots the front end up to slam down on the rockers so now I’m forced to raise it Bc it’s trapped in the neighborhood. I don’t need the video though it’s good I just needed to vent real quick thank you. Also we all need to come together to devise a plan that would limit speeding but also not absolutely fucking destroy cars in the process, the speed bump is outdated and does more harm then good at this point it’s time for a change

Could you provide a video of how to adjust the rear? I have a 335xi and it’s different for rear wheel drive e90’s

Do you need to do alignment each time you adjust the heights?

do you need to spooring again after changing the ride height ?

I lowerd from the second ring and it misses the preload how to get back to default preload

Could you make a video about the rear I adjust the separate spring for the ride height but idk if I need to take out the bolt for the shock and lengthen that as well as I’m raising my rear ride height.

Hi, do drift cars use coilovers in their system?

Isn’t it due to the motion ratio that if you adjust the coilovers for example an inch the distance adjusted on the outside would be 2 inches.??

Does that leave you enough play for shocks to work? Nice video!

I cranked up the damping setting so there'd be less chance of bottoming out. It makes for a jarring daily driving experience by removing that smooth luxurious feel. So far so good after a year.

are you xdrive? how are your axles i heard you can’t lower xdrives too much

Super easy to follow thank you! I was told when adjusting the height you need to do alignment again... do you know if this is true?

You don’t need to do it as long as you don’t notice the tires wearing out very uneven is the main concern. I dropped 2 inch from my last alignment and then ran over 3 curbs. It’s off where my steering wheel is off slight but I’m not wearing uneven too badly

As per websites, yes you need to align. On a personal experience, dropped the front an inch and lost alignment. So I guess its true that you need to align after adjusting.

Thanks for sharing, any knocks or noises with BCs?

~1 year of BCs installed. No jarring knocks, but slight noise over rough roads in the front. Sound increased when lowered the ride height. Haven't checked if I'm rubbing anywhere or loose hardware. Other than that, BCs have been good to me.

They reason why ppl have or experience noises with Bc or coilovers in general is because they don’t tighten the top mount tight enough since it’s a little difficult to do it helps if you have a go-through or pass through socket ratchet so you can hold the inside allen hex bolt with a hex key o t handle key while tightening the top mount nut if not it’ll keep spinning and not tighten

If i lower my already lowered car coilovers does it mess up the alignment ?

Did you get a wheel alignment after lowering it?

@Fungustus1

Жыл бұрын

After letting the coilovers settle over the course of a few days, I got an alignment. I follow the rule of thumb of if you change suspension geometry an alignment is needed, also disassembling and reassembling suspension parts will change enough of the tolerances that an alignment is needed most of the time.

Hey bro I have bc coils as well. Are your coils bouncy in front? Because mine are super bouncy and wondering if you’d have any tips on how I can fix it.

@Fungustus1

I can sort of agree since it was a step up from stock in terms of bounciness, but cranking the damping setting via the dial on top of the coils helped at higher speeds. It consequently makes speed bumps jarring and feel every crack of the road. It removes the luxurious feel to the car and passengers complain but whatever.

I have bc coils on my 86 and I do feel like mine are bounce at the front to and I drive around on the hardest setting

Super easy when they havent been on for 50k miles. I put my car on the lift today and it took me nearly 2hrs. That lower lock was stuck on both front coilovers. I ended up needing to use heat to free them up.

nah i’m gonna try again when weather gets better im up north so we get snow but i just raised the rear to even it out.. the back can go down the perfect amount of low but i would suggest adjusting the fronts before install. i know it’s not easy to gauge what height to put it at but 🤷‍♂️

My top rings are stuck in the rear, how do I get them loose?

Hmmm. Maybe try penetrating oil, liquid wrench... worse comes to worse, take off the coilover and give it a good clean to dislodge debris / salt.

A good soak of pb blast and then using something to smack the handle of the wrench might give it enough sudden torque to loosen just the collar, maybe?
