Great install video! Simple and effective. I'm sure this will help tons of G8X owners install their springs.

I love the look of the lowering springs and spacers. I want to get them for my g82 m4 too, did you ever feel like it was so low you had to stress a lot about pot holes or bumps? Did it ever feel cumbersome at that ride height?

I prefer this install over removing the front Axel bolt which is single use and has a unique torquing procedure. Great job!!
@brandonteege418011 ай бұрын
His vehicle is RWD, most likely have to remove it so axle doesn’t seperate on xdrive

I can't figure out how to drop front strut down and pull out towards me to remove springs . Mine drops down and the strut won't clear wheel well nor does the rotor feel like it's leani g out enough to get acess to remove and put in new spring. I'm stuck right now. Put everything back together. Does xdrive make a difference in install process? I'm following every step

Excellent video! I’ve a G87, and I think it should be a very similar method to lower the car.
@GokuTheHusky2 жыл бұрын
Everyone hates on these but the car is literally function over form. It set a 7:30 at the nurbergring which is insane, which is very close to the m4 gts models. I cant imagine a g8x gts model or of the sort

So..this is a non x-drive car?? Correct? Can you just lower the control arm/strut on an x-drive car and rotate it out? I would guess not??? Do you have to disconnect the front axle by taking out the center bolt??

My experience with H&R springs few years back in both E93 M3 and Audi Rs5 was not pleasant. Both cars looked much better but the ride was ver bouncy. I hope the ride is better on the G82.

Hey man. The top nut, which has the sensor, spins and won't come off. Is this spinning the strut? Will it only come off with an impact driver?

they showed it - you jack up the lower control arm and take pressure off of the coil before taking off that upper bolt on the strut.
