BC Coilover with Swift spring 02

Rate this Entry










Not much to report while installing the new coilover kit.

Just remove the old tired original OEM coilover and
install the new one.

Front and Rear installed but not torqued to the spec yet.
Sway bar is also still free.
Needs to adjust the angle of front brake hose bracket
based on OEM spec.


Now the fun begins with the ride height adjustment.
Remove the tyre, make adjustment, put the tyre back on,
move the car back and forth, shake the car
and repeat the whole process several times.

Fuel tank is not full so not ideal for the ride height check but
the new coilover won’t settle for several miles so will see how it goes.


Needs to carry out compression check as
annual engine health check and
change the engine oil and filter.
