dammit... had a booboo while installing Tein today..

I had the front installed fine.. while installing the rear.. I couldn't get the spring out with the stupid Kragen spring compressor.. and accidentally got the highlighted little part snapped off




I'm gonna go to a shop tomorrow morning for them to swap out the rear springs and maybe shave off the bolt area a little to have another small flat surface..

any other ideas?

beside that.. the Tein springs are lovely.. in the front Feels like a Nascar with only the front lowered.. lol

 

Same thing happened to me.
But I found a way around it.

 

lol do share!!

I just went to a shop.. friend there used their better compressor and put the rear springs on.. then shaved off part of the bolt to a nice flat surface again

 

thanks for the writeup. good stuff

 

Thats what I did.

I might be using this writeup soon

 

what exactly is the difference between the two bolts in this picture?



Mine had only blue on them...............

 

great writeup. thanks!

 

good info

 

Top bolt is used to ajdust the camber. You can see that the top bolt sits on a groove so the bolt doesn't move when installed. Rotating it adjusts the camber.
