BC Racing Coilover Spring Change and Preload Adjustment

[SlightlyMntal]

Ha this is such an old video. I remember watching this like 5 years ago when I got my BC's and this was out before then.

Tried this method and destroyed the 5mm allen at the top of the shock shaft. To avoid this you can remove the hub mount and take the spring off the bottom of the strut. It will mean you'll have to reset your ride height but if you're changing springs you would have to do this anyway.

What would happen if i set the spring preload an max and the ride height at max

Would this help with knocking sounds coming from the coilover?

Other than removing the coilovers, do you need to do anything before unscrewing the top screw? First time install, and I have a ripped Dust boot, wanted to replace before installing. But I believe the previous owner had them set very low. I wasn't sure if that caused the spring be under some compression when not installed?

whats the spec to tight down the bolt that hold the spring

If it's not a progressive spring does pre-load matter?

What if you’re really strong and have muscley arms and can turn the lower spring perch much further than most puny arm girly men?

All jokes aside, I’m turning the spring perch it seems I will run outta thread before I can’t turn it by hand anymore(and I’m not all that muscley lol).

Can you tell me please How do I adjust preload on Divorced rear coils???? Same 4mm?

[Var]

Can the preload be adjusted properly while coilovers are on the car?

[edgardoarroyo]

BC coilovers comes preload from factory? Also how low the car will sit with the coilovers straight from the box?

Just getting around to replacing my front shocks. Right outta the box they were shit. Had them on for 250 miles and they banged really hard/bottomed out. Barely drove the car bcuz of this. Got the shocks replaced under warranty, but I have a feeling the new ones won’t last. Mostly bcuz BC Racing is absolutely trash. For $1100 they’re on not top of the line but they shouldn’t be total garbage either. Yes I expect better. $1100 ain’t nuthin to sneeze at. Surprised there isn’t a class action lawsuit tbh.

What is wrong with the audio? Background audio is louder than the instructions. Cant hear it.🙄
