I've struck that with the front Bilsteins a few times and had to cut them off. Those were probably rooted anyway looking at how quick they return. I hope you glued the lowering wedge to the frame of the car where it is meant to go and not to the spring top!!! If they come loose from the spring, they will very likely fall out. Come loose from the frame and they are stuck in place provided you cut down the spring retainer clamps the correct amount before bolting them back in, you don't want those loose.

Thanks for this video, very helpful. I too am trying to lower the front....Im having trouble with getting the lower control arm out. The outside nut I can get to with a 15mm but how did you hold the inside larger bolt for it to stop spinnkng???

could you also just put the rubber you took out of the front back on the opposite side it was removed rather than cutting the pieces that hold the front leaf in?
@eflinegarage8 күн бұрын
I Suppose that could work, but the new rubber is angled in such a way it gets held in

@eflinegarage did it settle at all or is it still in 4x4 mode? Lol, that's what I call mine!

Yes thank goodness it dropped about 1.5 inches and sits perfectly now.

@eflinegarage you just waited for it to settle? I put the 1 inch bolts on one side to see the comparison and I see no difference...
