I've tried installing coilovers on my Honda CRX SI, when I let the car down on the ground both struts rise up about an inch underneath the hood where they mount and I can't close the hood. I know that the parts are right. Could this happen because my shocks are shot or am I doing something wrong?
are these full coilovers or sleeves? if they are sleeves and u took apart the shocks, make sure u put everything back. sounds like u might have missed the silver washer looking thing (sorry dont know the technical name) that goes about halfway down the shock piston. just a thought
That sleave doesn't matter that much. I left mine out once on accident, but there was no problem. I think he is forgetting the washer that fits on the tappered part of the strut rod.
ya thats wut i meant, obviously wasnt that clear haha. i asked if used a sleeve (like ground control) cause that would require him to take apart the shock, and could have forgot to put the washer back. versus if he threw in a full coilover (like zeal). but i agree that washer seems to be the culprit.
