Car Rides like @!#$...
Thursday, July 21, 2005 7:35 AM
Okay i have the sportlines on stock struts...BUT i did have Konis on before..

The car rides likes hit, and quite frankly cant tell a difference of the konis and stock struts...new to new...

SO im thinking maybe there is something in the suspension that needs to be replaced to soften up the ride...is there anything?

Maybe liek control arm bushings or something

no tell it like it was..... i set em ...what 2-3 years ago... hell i was a junior in college when i installed those.


i never set em on full top level stiffness. i did 1 click higher than stock .... and i said, that when you get the bearings from the coilovers, then we can go stiffer or softer depending on how you felt it rode...

2 years passed and THEN you finally got the coilover bearings.... we were meeting at pats house atleast twice a month the entire summer, you came like 2-4 times i was only there for two times you were there.


your last post entitled the same as this post

check and see if those coilovers you had on there damaged the konis....


also stiffen or softe up the struts. adjust it, thats what you paid for and the beauty of adjustable struts

might wanna start stiffening em up, now especially if the softest setting may have damage.

struts are there to control the spring.



i;ve said to adjust em, but have you?
