Ok long story short.. I just now finished installing my hotchkis front springs.. I know the rears are alot easier to do which is why I did the fronts first.

I just got a massive headache all of a sudden and can't get myself to install the rears tonight and I have stuff to do tom. I really dont want to passout lol.

I dont have to drive really far or anything but I probably wont be able to install my rears till monday of next week...

What are the consequenses of me driving like this? I would say it will be a total of 100 miles..

 

you will be fine.

 

Nice

I think I will man up and do the rears.. they shouldnt take too long lol and my headache is going away.

 

yea man but they should be alright if you dont do them.
but goodluck man.

 

Thanks!

Btw your car is sick

 

yes you will be fine

 

I finished.. wow was that a pain in the ***..

 

All that work and I didn't even notice a difference. Maybe they need to settle?

I hope so because it looks the same..

 

Hotchkis website says it takes about 5 miles of driving for them to "settle", although that seems aweful short on time to settle.

 

i thought hotchkis didnt really lower the car at all?

 

I noticed a pretty big difference in mine, looks wise.

The handling was an even more obvious difference, though.

 

Were you be able to get back in factory specs?

Thanks.

 

take aspirin now

install rear tommorow

it is fine

 

Huh?

I am getting an alightnment done here in a couple weeks to make sure everything is good.

 

About 3/4" front and back.

 

My rear springs never did settle after years of driving, and were the same as stock height. The fronts did lower the car a little but not the amount advertised.

 

Same here. I installed mine about 3 weeks ago. The fronts are noticeably lowered, but my back looks almost stock. The fronts with my 19s have about a 2 finger gap and the rear has 3 finger gap.

 

I bet

 

Weird.. mine seems the other way around.. the damn fronts seems stock and the backs are lowered.
