Lowering the MitsubishiEvo X: New CARiD Video


Hello, guys! Our very own, Cody the Videographer's 2014 EVO X, is back on stage. If you've been following this adventure, Cody's EVO X has gone through a complete transmission rebuild. Now it is time to give it a real suspension upgrade and change its height with a help of the Bilstein B16 Coilover Kit.

Perfect for street and everyday driving, this kit provides tons of adjustability, improves handling, and offers a desired level of performance. In our new video, our tech expert Greg is helping Cody to complete the mission and install this kit. See how it goes and what the result looks like!

This is actually a great video, demonstrated the professional way of measuring the ride height and using the spring compressor.

Love and appreciation to Bilstein too for developing a coilover kit based on the OEM Bilsteins! The majority of Evo X owners find the OEM Bilsteins to be the best and most ideal set up for daily driving. I noticed the B16 launch as well, and offering the OEM reliability paired with aftermarket coilover adjustability is awesome.

[For Bilsteins, I hope to find a skinnier replacement spring on the front, so the spring can fit into iLift air cups (for sensor-activated front axle lift). It's important for us who daily drive a lowered Evo. Currently I use 20mm Tema4x4 strut spacers (to go over steep neighborhood ramps) which makes me a class clown.]
