Hehe, same thing happened to me too. Got everything on really easy then had to do it about 5 more times, including taking the back ones off completely again.

Oh in case you get a tapping sound check the red tightening thing that is by itself on the lower part of the strut. I had to tighten that bish using a hammer so it wouldnt come loose again.


I am going to start messing around with the settings soon to see the differences.

i messed up my front pass one i think i didn't notice until i tighten up 2 of them, that the 3rd one was being prevented from being tighten because of hte allen bolt on top of the strut was under the strut mount i tried to take the nut off one of the 3 on top and its now spinning i am going to have to use Air tools and an allen keep to get it back off

i went through that 5 times this weekend.. first time the top red thing was lose, then i tighten that... then the bottom red one was lose.. tighten that.. then i had them tight, but the spring wasn't compessed enough.. tighten that up.. been ok so far..

i had to use the jack to bring the wheel hub to the coilovers.. didn't think of that when i did the rears and scraped the **** out of my hand trying to lift it up.. so much for instructions

my cousin told me he went hard on his AGX's in the rear and it handled better.. i might explore that also..


I needed your help all weekend you freak.. where the hell where you.. i told you to email me

Doh that cant be too good. I had to adjust the canber allen bolt to slide through the hole. Mine was hitting the edge so I couldnt tighten it up all the way.

What did you put your camber setting at? I put mine on 0 and used a level on the tire to see if it was straight.

yep, definately going to have to keep an eye on that.

I had to use the jack to bring it up too. I was kinda ****ed that they didnt come with any instructions. I had to play with them a bit to figure everything out.
