avenger79 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 fantastic!!! get back out there&finish painting it, it's tempting to rip back the 'vengers paint and re-finish it just to beat you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I dare you to beat me, that makes more contenders to the race I started on fixing the passengers door, I realized I'm kinda wasting a fairly decent door and so far I haven't found anything better, and I'm just getting fucking fed up with it, it should have been painted months ago. Fucking hard to weld with a arc though, I'll try my best to not be a rangi cunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thminiman Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 ahh right, congrats on the purchase of hi lows... by the way, if you want to go low at the back, you need shortened shocks or new adjustable height ones... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 What a ninja Sweet as man, thanks - Whats the reason behind that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thminiman Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 the way the things work is the whole wheel/brake assembly is held up by the shock(when u jack it up) so when the rid height is low, the shock sits low but if your wheel gets off the ground at all, the hi low assembly is liable to fall out as there is no force on it, and nothing holding it in... kinda hard to explain, but yea, thats why my back end isnt very low yet. the fronts are similar, but the way there designed means they can fall out as there are walls on all sides to stop it from falling out.

cute wee gem Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I remember now, what I was going to say was.. miniman, I'm not saying you're wrong in what you say about the HI-LOs falling out, but think about the suspension a bit more. When your wheel comes off the ground (which is pretty unlikely to happen anyway), Say your going into a driveway and the rear wheel lifts off, the shock won't let it go to full droop straight away due to rebound, unless your car had the wheel off the ground for about 4-5 seconds or so, it shouldn't goto full droop. Basically I think you would have to damn unlucky to have it fall out, I lifted a corner of the car and did a few quick tests to see. I'll do a search soon to see if I can find anyone having these problems ^^ probably not as unlucky as me right now, 2nd door/set I've missed out on, I'm really gutted right now.. ruined my week but I guess life could be worse eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
