Adjustable suspension question¿¿>!-!

lazz323, Dec 6, 8:27am
i have a set of K-Sport suspension and i recently wound them all the way down to see how low they sit :), (sits hellaflush haha) anyway when its jacked up springs are un-captive but when jack is down its captive again. Is it meant to be un-captive whilst jacked up!

If its uncaptive while jacked/on a hoist it will fail a WOF. You will need to shorten the inner shock length and likely require a cert, or get aftermarket shocks designed for the springs you have fitted.

ahh the post was edited a minute before I posted.
You can also fit a keeper spring to keep the main spring captive

is a keeper spring safe to use! how much should it cost to shorten the inner shock roughly! is that like getting rid of some of the thread!

cost $150 a shock it you wanna shorten it,as they said,use keeper springs.

Hmm -OP your car is fitted with adjustable suspension and you want a WOF. I suspect you're gonna end up needing a cert anyway
