ok so i've been running on my coilovers for little over a year now. my question is, my passenger rear side has been rubbing a lot more than my driver rear. both at same height and stiffness. does this mean my shock is blown so its not as "stiff"? or should i worry aobut other things. camber is even on both side as well.

i'm thinking my shocks are blown..

prolly blown haha.. ksports suck internally.

typerex187 has had them for about the same time frame and he thinks all 4 are blown due to savage canyon 'cruises'

did you roll your fenders?

You go the bolts right?

YES GOT THE BOLTS! but it seems like they're too small? cuz i cant create any camber with them... or am i doing something wrong. regardless thanks brother!.

fenders are shaved but i just met up with richard today on accident ( hahah dna_splice) and he said i could shave it down more so a little task for me this weekend.

PS good meeting you richard.

Yeah when i put them on they didnt move it much. You have to position that washer correctly and i cant figure out where that litte tab is supposed to face.

SMALL WORLD! hahahahah

just take your time grinding it down

....

the tab on the camber bolt points toward the wheel, not the strut/coilO

i thought it points towards the struts when u want negative camber?

yea my front two are gone, if you notice body roll from the front? I notice when i take turns at certain speeds my car isn't as leveled as it was before. The noise is alot louder as well, i can hear metal squeaking when the road surface isn't even.

Correction to Richard there weren't savage.. remember it was just cruising...CRUISING
