Title: Lowered Springs Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on October 30, 2006, 12:40:24 PM Can anyone tell me what their bump-stop clearance is after installing lowered springs into their HR Front-ended FE/FC?
The springs in the wife's ute are too low and I think they are about 2 1/2" lower than standard. I don't want to shell out $130 for the wrong set though. I need at least 38mm clearance with a rubber bumpstop that is 51mm (min) Title: Re: Lowered Springs Post by: Dave_EH on November 01, 2006, 12:27:13 AM Stinky,
Did you know you can buy shorter bump stop rubbers to suit lowered front ends? Fulcrum can get them - I'm not sure who else. Would this solve your problem? Title: Re: Lowered Springs Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on November 01, 2006, 12:55:07 AM I had thought of that, but the bump stop rubbers need to be 51mm minimum, roadworthy requirement, which AFAIK is the factory height for the rubber.
I am pretty sure 2" lowered springs would do the job, but I want to make sure before I cough. Title: Re: Lowered Springs Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on January 20, 2007, 05:31:11 AM BUMP! I'll try again ::)
