            the height of the coil wen the car was too low 45mm from the bottom of the lock nut to the bottom of the thread

            after i raised it 20mm i also raised the rears 10mm they were 75mm

                • Looks good although did you raise the back simply because you raised the front or because it was rubbing. Looked fine before geezer.

                  • well it wasnt rubbing but wasnt sure on how it would go with people in the back so i thought id raise it a bit more just to be on the safe side

                    • Looks like a good result, hope the UK thread I posted on these were of some help. It will be interesting to see what you think of them after you've put some K's on them.

                      well done

                          • Mine was that low and needed to be wound up a bit, looked DAMN hot, but had issues with one too many humps. When it got wound up it went a little too far so I have to drop it down a little more, basically I want the height to be as low as it can be without scraping the speed humps I drive over everyday... Mind you for the nats it may be dropped to insanely stupid low for the day

                            On a side note, good luck with the trolley jack, I have one and it was still too low. Jacks that will fit under stupidly low cars tend to be stupidly expensive.

                            If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.
