front right shock preload question
hi guys, i hve tried it and it really works, but i would like to knw how much is too much? will too much preload make the car feel funky when it makes right hand turns? the car is great on stock and 19 but i run mod, and that's where i encounter slight problems. thanks

The second way is to measure your front shocks with a set of calipers and then crank on your front right shock a couple of turns and re measure. I forgot the exact measurement off the top of my head. I can measure my shocks when I get home and let you guys know.
From what the factory driver told me is the car is well balanced now so your really don't have the torque steer when you gun it but the rotation of the shaft will make the car want to dive too hard on the right shock. So you preload it to compensate for that problem.
Once you keep the rear wheels on the ground the car is REALLY HOOKED UP!!!!

the front shocks on my car are weird...to set ride height 5mm either side on the front my front right shock automatically needs preloading a bit more than the left...weird....saying that i dont actually get any torque steer whats so ever, or not any that i can see/feel.
#3416
The front shocks will not always be the same length to get your ride height the right. That is why I always set me teak before preloading the front right shock. So, you would set the ride height, set the tweak perfect, and then preload the shock. Either by the way with the tweak board or measure your shocks. I can post the measurements to preload the shock after I get home from work. I can't remember exactly how much off the top of my head.

Hey guys,
I'm taking into consideration for doing the battery mod where you use tape instead of the battery brace. What would be the "best" Dremel tools for this? (Cutoff Wheel, etc).
Also, does anyone know what page(s) I could find a picture of this done ?
Thanks.
