I just got a set of BC coilovers and am getting ready to install them on my G this weekend. I'll post some pics of my install after the weekend, and let everyone know how it goes. Does anyone have any secret tips i should know about?

 

supposedly they have a rattling problem that can be fixed. let us know if you get the same problem.

 

Patience with getting them set to the right height and ride and dont eff with the preload. Thats my advice to you.

 

Sounds good....I have heard the same about the rattels, from what i understand the problem should be fixed. Fingers crossed!

 

waiting for the pix. And tell me how much you lower the car because i have one sitting on my living room. I just don't have time to install it. haha

 

I've done everything BC said and it still has rattles. I started a threat about it. Search

 

Incorrect!

 

I don't have rattles...

 

But the question is did they EVER have rattles? If they never had rattles your one of the lucky few. A lot of us had coils that had rattles from day one and I believe its in the manufacturing of the shocks. Its my belief that the strut rod had excess slop in the twin tube. For those that still have them, I'm about to swoop in the save the day. I'm going to BC next week and Pete and myself WILL determine the cause, so standby

 

^^^ About time...

 

keep. Me. Posted.

 

Still rattle free too.

 

Yeah bro, I'll def let you know what we find. Is there anyone who previously had rattles, but fixed it in some way and is now rattle free?

 

Never had rattles from the beginning

 

I installed my new BC Coiloverls this weekend, I am pretty stoked on how easy they were to install. It took me about 3 hours (with beer drinking) to do the install by myself. I had a couple issues getting the preload in the rear, unfortunately i did the install on the weekend and no one answered the phone at BC, I'm guessing there not open on the weekend.

I found some good advice in the suspension section of the forum and had the problem fixed in no time...Thanks for the help

As for how the car handles now!! It's like night and day, i can't believe how much harder you can drive this car. The body roll is almost unnoticeable now, and you can get on the gas so much earlier as you exit the corners. I have a Z as my go fast car, but now with the new BC coilovers it's gonna be hard to chose what to drive more often.

All i need now is some boost!!!

I will be posting the pics tonight or tomorrow.
