I dont know what wrong here but i raised the front of my car about a inch inch and half on the spring and the car didnt move. Does anyone know what wrong here. From what i heard u have to lower the perches to make the car go higher but then i alos heard u have to highter them to make it go higher. Does anyone know the truth cause nothin came with the coilovers sayin this stuff. thanks peace

usually you have to raise the perch to raise the car up...lowering the perch just wouldn't make any sense.

you are probably riding the bumpstops.

Ok if im riding the bumstops what do i do to fix this and is that bad? thanks and yea the place told me that lowering the perches raises it, so basically they're idiots.

how low is your car right now?

Id say around 2 1/2 inches

Yep you're definitely riding on the bumpstops. When I installed my JICs, I initially lowered it about 2" and I was riding the bumpstops. I raised it about 1/2" and now the ride is great. Let us know how the B&Gs are after you get it off the bumpstops.

I wouldn't think the JIC's would have that problem since they are already shortened over an 1".

Anyway, over 2" is probably too low on the B&G's since I haven't confirmed how much if any the shocks are shortened. I know at 1.7" the TEINS have very little travel with stock bumpstops. Even if the B&Gs use shortened struts they use the stock bumpstops, IIRC.

Well its not the ride im complainin about its the fact that it wont even raise up. But anyways i raised it about a half inch from the height before which was around 2 1/2 but nothin yet Well ill try it again thanks guys.

I'd try to keep moving it up until your car moves. I agree with Jason on this one, you're most likely on your bumpstops. Isn't the ride really rough?

Yea its a little bouncy but i thought they suppose to be bouncy like that. ill try raisin it up this wknd to see if that works. any other info would help thanks

I raised it today. It looks like it raised but not too much. Id say i raised it about a 3/4 inch on the spring and it only looks like it went up 1/4? Doesnt sound right but i dont know ill have to call the company to see what they have to say about it.
