I was sick of the drop with my Sprints...so I got B&G's.

I spent many hours putting the new springs on, carefully and methodically.

The ride is better, because these are new springs, but my car is still just as low as with the sprints!!!

I had 1 finger worth of gap with the Sprints, and still have 1 finger with the B&G's....

WTF?

Any ideas anyone?

 

You said it yourself, your ride is better now, just be happy!

 

It won't be once these springs settle - I'll be practically touching the ground.

Plus, this doesn't help the axle problems I've been having....

 

Umm, did you accidently put the Sprints back on instead of the B&Gs.....

 

No.

 

Here's on theory that I don't think is plausible....but help me out here.

The Tokicos I had on there were compressed for a year by the Sprints - now they've lost their gas and don't expand fully, making the car lower.

 

Tokico's can't dampen B&G's correctly, there to soft. Get yourself some AGX's for better control. The gas charge may lift you, but not more then 1/8" or so. The firm settings of the AGX's will keep your car up while you drive. (Much less dive then the Toks and that might help your axel problem. I don't know of anyone runnung B&G ever reporting axel problems, I ran those springs last summer till I switched with Lime. She's got no axel problems with them either.

 

No, but my Sprints+Bad Seattle Roads+277hp caused my car to eat axles like Cheesy Poofs.

So I went with B&G's for the better ride and higher axle angle.

This doesn't help with the axle angle, and once they settle, it will probalby be worse.

 

damn, all the **** with dropping your car makes me want to keep my 4X4 status. I had a dropped car before and it rode like shhhhiiiittt
