I've installed my steeds springs, Koni shocks, and an adjustable pan hard bar. Everything looked okay but when I took it for a test drive I heard rattling in the rear. Pulled over and tightened the pan hard bar nuts as they may have been only hand tightened. As I kept driving I still heard the rattling. When I pulled into the drive way the car seemed to hit hard. Which sounded like a potential spring problem. Upon inspection, the springs seem much more compressed than they should be.
What's the issue? Do you think they were installed upside down? What other issue could I have? Thanks for your help guys!
Wow those springs are really compressed, I have steeda sport springs and they don't look anything like that on mine!
Who has ultralights on here that can tell if this looks right!
According to what I found, the tighter wound part of the coil goes towards the top. Someone else installed them and said after calling Steeda that's what they were told. Hope that helps.
I flipped the springs and hit the top of the shocks with the impact wrench a couple more times. Now it rides like a dream . Thanks for all the help gents. Pictures will come soon.
