I was simply speaking in theory of how I thought my coilovers worked.
I do appreciate your help though. You've been doing this shit a lot longer than I have.
I know when I started getting into this whole get my car low and flush thing I was noob. I had general idea of how it should work but not much. After many many tries and errors, after a lot of money waisted I finally got to where I am right now. I never asked anyone any questions. I did everything on my own in my garage. I didn't want to make something good and then someone come to me and tell me that without them I wouldn't be where I am now. In february of 2010 I dumped shit load of money in my car. After all that I still wasn't happy with what I got. I went into my garage, took my car apart, looked at it all. Next day I placed an order for two more coilover sets (I already had two), also brought my front hubs to machine shop. Week later I got my hubs made, still didn't know if they'll work or not. During same time I received two new coilovers. That friday night I went into my garage, took 4 sets of coilovers apart and started piecing them together. Shit was pretty frustrating as I just spend over $4k on coils and over $1k on hubs. At the end of sunday I was ready to fucking cry cause shit didn't work out. I took my moms car to work that monday. The whole day I was seating at work and thinking about what the fuck I am going to do now. That night I came back home and managed to make one set of coils out for 4. It rides fucking amazing for how low the car was/is.
I dont know everything, but I know my fare share...
