Coilover Install on Honda Civic | DIY

[@Anthroid9]

I like the style of video. It feels like she is a student learning from a teacher, and applying the knowledge as it’s being learned. Quality video guys!

[@WeRiide]

Thank you!!

[@henny_pab3351]

amazing video i slammed my 08 civic on some ebay coil overs and couldn’t be more satisfied took a a couple hours but with the right tools really good reference video

[@WeRiide]

Awesome! Thanks for watching!!

[@cvpifanatic]

Y'all should have installed a strut tower brace at the same time. I installed one on my 2012 and it was a lot of work to get all that stuff off. Now with the strut tower brace, my car corners so much better.

[@dennisa6595]

Great video. I’m installing some coilovers on my 08 civic and I came across some trouble with removing the 2 bolts holding the rotor camber. They seemed to be seized in there. Might have loctite by factory? Not sure. Any suggestions?

[@WeRiide]

Have you tried PB Blaster and letting it sit there for 15 minutes soaking?

[@whenwhathuh]

I live in Utah too! But we are definitely driving on different roads, cause I'm raising mine!

[@WeRiide]

Yeah the roads here are terrible!! Sacrifice for that low life stance!

[@mattij3814]

4 years later, but I have a question. Would it be easier to just take the top hat but off before you take the strut out? In my case my entire top hat will be exposed and I think this may be easier, no?

[@Nesto_zip]

i know this video is quite old but i was wondering if you guys used the oem bushing from the original strut? did mine yesterday messed up a couple parts one being that bushing and i’m having major clunking

[@WeRiide]

@@Nesto_zip yeah we didn’t think we needed it at first and had really bad clunking so we put it back in and tightened it down really tight and it seemed to get rid of the clunking 🤔

[@Nesto_zip]

@@WeRiidePerfect just did the same and everything worked perfect, one last question.. by chance did you guys install the front struts with the flat part on bottom? i did that and im having some clunking here in the front too

[@WeRiide]

@@Nesto_zip crap, I don’t remember what we did on the front 😖 sorry!

[@monray1234]

Do I need to do anything else if I install a coilovers on my 97 Civic Coupe if I’m running on stock wheel and tire sets. More power, Tnx.

[@WeRiide]

You don't need to do anything as far as the coilovers, but if you are looking for more power then you need to start upgrading different parts of the car

[@waynejardin7363]

I like how he is the one whet the gloves on .... But she is the one wrenching. ..lmao ......wtf

[@SanchezMotorsportsLLC]

Plot twist: She goes solo, gets a spinoff/own channel, gets more subs n views….

[@OmarAguilarkiller]

Where did you guys got those headlights?? 😳

[@WeRiide]

Amazon! 💪🏼

[@jpalmer94]

Where can I get that compresser thing you used to relieve the tension on the old coil to get the top hat off

[@WeRiide]

Rented it at an AutoZone

[@Dan-lx7ok]

Really cool video overall and will help a ton of people out doing this job. I just wanted to point out a few things that are worth knowing about since I didn't hear you guys mention them: - The rear control arms are solid by default (as they are on most Hondas) when you lower them you will need to get adjustable arms or otherwise your camber is always going to be out of whack and you're going to go through tires a lot faster. - Ideally with all suspension parts if you have the car jacked up you'll want a jack or something under them supporting the weight so you don't have a loaded suspension pushing down on your bolts as you're trying to remove/install them. Overall saves a lot of headache too :) Again, cool video. Subbing to see what else you guys work on :)

[@WeRiide]

Awesom!! Thank you for the tips and the support!!

[@elbaron51]

Sure

[@boomtzy_tv1093]

hello im looking for a coilover as well for my civic 10th gen sport edition. is this one worth it? how's was the drive?

[@WeRiide]

Drive was a lot better than expected, but still the stereotypical stiff ride. Used as a daily though and wasn’t too bad. Would definitely recommend

[@fijitears]

Utah checkin in! I’m taking my Skunk 2 coils off my FA5 before it goes to the junkyard.

[@WeRiide]

Hell yeah!!

[@ynw_caz315]

What size are the 2 front nuts and bolts that connect the coilover to the rotar????? Plz I need a new one an can’t find it 😭

[@matthewallwood8234]

What coil overs did you put on the civic and how low did you drop it? How many inches between wheel and fender?

[@AchillesRayven]

Do you happen to remember the brand of coilovers these are? I’m looking to do a full suspension upgrade on my Civic. Looking for some reliable parts.

[@WeRiide]

These are Tein coilovers. Very affordable yet reliable!

[@user-oc4so4lj9g]

That compression tool you used is sick where’d you get It at?? And price please

[@WeRiide]

Rented it from Auto Zone, you can probably purchase it for $30-45?

[@TrungNguyen-dg8qs]

i’m i suppose to use the old top hats from the front coilovers ?

[@terrystarr4793]

If the rear shock spins in place is that bad for it? idk what I did but my rear passenger side shock will not go any lower and I can't figure out why, its literally a inch higher and for some reason I cant lower it any more even tho the rear driver side, and whole front is at perfect height. I hope I didn't break something. If you have any advice please help!!!! Edit: I have a 2009 Civic with Tein Flex Z's so pretty much the same exact setup.

[@WeRiide]

That is really strange! The rear spring, is that where you are adjusting the height in the rear?

[@terrystarr4793]

@@WeRiide I adjust it with the shock. This is my first time ever installing coilovers, I think something else is wrong tbh. I get a clunk over bumps, I also installed Godspeed adjustable camber arms which I hope aren't the issue. Possibly something is worn out like a bushing, or something. Going to find out this Friday I have to just take it in to a shop and see whats up.

[@Itchintogodeerhuntin]

What’s the part numbers for those Teins? Nice vid

[@McDzy]

Any updates? Also can you make a short vid showing how to adjust the height? thanks!!

[@carlwico7423]

does all of the rear coil overs springs must have lock ring on the top instead of bottom i had mine putin wrong.

[@WeRiide]

Not sure exactly, it would probably depend on the company and the model of coilovers you buy 🤔

[@travis4308]

Great vid. Something about the 4 door makes the body look so off and not flow.

[@percyochosa3678]

hi! what size are your tires and rims? great looking civic!

[@WeRiide]

We actually sold the Civic and don't have the sizes anymore :( Sorry!!

[@Rafaellasvegas]

Thank you guys! I want coilovers but am looking at which to buy. You mentioned it wasn’t slammed but could you have gotten even more Low ? Or was that the max? Great vid

[@WeRiide]

Its Rafael it definitely had more room to go, we messed with it a little and got the tires to tuck under the fender slightly 😃

[@Rafaellasvegas]

We Riide way cool, thanks for the info.

[@slitherman7883]

@@WeRiide how is the front height adjusted without touching preload

[@JohnnyTY]

Awesome job Amanda...those rims looks nice

[@chrisjgolf2732]

Nice video, don't know why you didn't raise the wipers.

[@inoskex7725]

what is the website that you got these coilovers from

[@WeRiide]

We got them directly from Tein

[@BOSS97]

Did you guys have to install a camber kit in the rear to counteract any added negative camber?

[@WeRiide]

No, it worked out on its own!

[@MannyDelReal]

Where did u get those spring compress? I’m looking to buy one

[@WeRiide]

We just rented them at AutoZone :)

[@MannyDelReal]

We Riide I see I just order one 😂

[@WeRiide]

Manny Del Real which ones did you get?

[@MannyDelReal]

Well it’s for a Honda Fit lol but I figured it out I went with the old street basis where I could send them in to get fixed if they ever break

[@mannY17808]

Hows the ride on those coilovers? Is those the advanced z or basis?

[@WeRiide]

They are the basis. Ride is a little stiff but not as bad as we were expecting :)

[@Andres-sg9yc]

How much did you guys end up lowering it by? 1 to 2-ish inches?

[@WeRiide]

Andres yeah it was probably 1.25”, this is our daily driver so we didn’t want it too low for the Utah roads. They are so shitty!

[@Andres-sg9yc]

@@WeRiide roads are also shitty in CO, I know how it is lmao

[@khadenherrick]

How many inches did you lower it

[@WeRiide]

@@khadenherrick not sure what the total drop ended up being. We bolted it up and only had to go down about 5/8” more 🤌🏼

[@lexmichael2040]

hello, just a question guys I already input my basis Z coilover but my ride was so hard and so shaky and everytime I hit a dip it bounce hard, any opinion that will help me to know whats going on and where did I go wrong?

[@WeRiide]

saintballadeer milkovich is the noise coming from both front and rear? Or just rear? We had a lot of “clunking” and “banging” from the rear when we would hit bumps, but did a quick fix

[@lexmichael2040]

We Riide mine only happen on the left front every time I press the break but most of the issue are hard bounce and thats the thing hard to figure out whats up.

[@WeRiide]

saintballadeer milkovich and you re used the stock top hats right?

[@lexmichael2040]

We Riide yeah I did, the clanking sound are like from spring it self, there was a moment that when I hit the break its clanking but there comes a time that its not so hard to figure out whats wrong, sorry to keep asking you its just only you have the same car with me thats why.

[@DriveSlow]

@@WeRiide what was the quick fix?

[@epixavenger8]

Where’d you get those headlights?
