You will need to be sure they do not rub. One thing I noticed in my install, was that the rear coilovers have a very small gap between the shock body and the wheels/tires. ie – if you want to lower the car 1″, lower the pre-load by. Torque all bolts, go for a short drive and check settings again after suspension has settled.Īs outlined in the technical documents ( link here), if you’re lowering or raising the car in step 13, make sure to divide the length you’re adding/removing between the pre-load and lower perch.Adjust ride height to the users likings.Jack up car again, and add the difference in length to the preload.

I do notice some minor rubbing on the rear lower shock body and the top of the OEM rear lower control arm as the rear suspension goes through its travel. My install was pretty straight forward, and I’ll outline what I did next. Flatout suspension has the option to go with the OEM top mount in place of the pillowball mount in the rear. Available as an add-on option.They come set at 0 preload, so you will need to set the lower mount height, install them, then set the pre-load as outlined in Flatout’s technical documents.
