STEP 12-7

picsstep17-7-002.jpg (59858 bytes) Place the car on a flat surface and use the 2 mm hexagon tool to adjust the down travel screws.
picsstep17-7-001.jpg (54378 bytes) Make sure the left and right side of the car have the same amount of down travel
Perform the same steps on the front of the car.
picsstep17-7-003.jpg (65490 bytes) Remove the screws securing the bottom of the shock absorbers and check if the shock absorber travel is larger as the down stop travel.
If the down travel is stopped by the maximum length of the shock abosorber this can cause premature breakage.
Set the down stop travel always less then the length of the shock absorber travel.
picsstep17-7-004.jpg (55905 bytes) Take ride height clip and clip them at the top of the shock absorber to adjust the correct ride height.
We placed 2 mm in the front and 1 mm in the rear.
The set up guide that comes in this car user manual is one of the best provided so far with a kit.
It explains in detail the way changes will have effect on the cars performance.
A new standard is set with this.
