Thanks 2k6-Z33 for the compliment!

Yeah, Adam they were bought new from Bulletproof Automotive this past summer. Jeff at BP has tried to help me with this and told me to contact Dom and Kent if I had other problems. It's just strange that I'm having this problem...

Take care

Hopefully you get everything worked out, that's a rad stance.

your issue seems very odd. You should not adjust height using the spring. If all 4 inches of the bottom are filled with the threaded section you are technically maxed low. The only way to get lower is to compress the spring with the two upper collars (which makes the spring shorter) but this drastically affects your ride quality

I really wonder about the advice people give on here.



If you compress the spring (add preload) you will raise the car

Thanks everyone for all the help! Voboy- the thought has crossed my mind to bust out the saw, but I just can't do it haha! They're too nice!

Well, it's still in a work in progress, but I'm currently putting the stock suspension back in until I decide what I want to do with the Zeals...

Take care
