    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    I will rewatch the video, but I guess my question is this..If the mechanic has it now in the "wrong" place, how do I find out where the "right" place is

    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    If I was to look under the car while it is sitting on the ground, is there a way I could visually tell if the lower arm is torqued in the wrong position?

    Yeah, live and learn on this one...the springs don't even look that difficult really, I just felt more comfortable having s hop do it to check that things were correct. I appreciate all the help on this forum...I will get it right eventually. LOL

    It was definitely a 4 point lift....Them not having a drive on is why I backed off the subframe connectors with them thankfully. Me personally if I own a shop there is no way in hell I am letting a car leave higher than it started after I installed springs. I would take the time to at least know...

    They definitely did not use a drive on lift...That is the reason I did not have them install subframe connectors (thank god). But I figured springs would not be able to be done on a drive on anyway because you have to let the wheels hang....I didn't know anything about the a-arm situation...

    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    While I hear your point, the part that is missing is that the only reason I took the car to a shop for the springs to begin with is because I didn't know a lot about the car and the front was already a good bit higher than the rear when I bought it. I literally told the shop when I talked to...

    The Eibach tech I spoke to thought this was a potential issue also, but wouldn't any shop worth a :poo: have just gone back and simply fixed that issue? Regardless I have new struts coming and will be learning about Mustang suspension geometry to try and figure it out LOL

    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    I am thinking the struts were changed at some point( I have only had the car for a few weeks). My gut feeling is either they are bad or are incorrect for this car. While a proper low pressure strut shouldn't make a difference, from the research I have done and techs I've spoken to, a strut with...

    In hindsight I would have just gone with a hatchback or coupe spring set.

    Yeah...to be honest the front is the same as before the springs...I think it actually looks or is a touch higher, likely because the back is now lower than before

    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    I wish I could say....I had a shop install the springs...they said they installed them correctly. lol....The only thing they said to me is the fronts were a PITA to get out and the new ones back in......you don't normally unbolt the A-arm from the k member right? From what I have seen online...

    Suspension Suspension problem--lowering springs gone wrong

    I had Eibach lowering springs installed last week and the rear looks great, but the front did not lower even a little bit. The springs are the ones specifically for the convertible. I have taken some drives and hit every bumpy road I can find and no settling at all, even if they settled it...

    convertible top "twisted"

    Are the subframes super important in the vert? I will be staying at fairly low power level for a while so wondering how important they are

    convertible top "twisted"

    The passenger side is actually the one with no stretch to it, which makes me think it might be pulling that side up creating the twist?

    Is it just me or do these springs look like different tension rates?
