  1. That makes sense with the bump stop. I thought that the suspension didn't normally come into contact with them. Thought they were more there as a safety. As for the saggy butt. I'm running 3/8" spacers in the rear and I still have an inch of difference between the front and rear wheel gaps. Do you know what your measurements are?
  2. No, everything I replaced I listed above. Would be happy to know I could fix my problem with just adding a bigger spacer. The clunking has me a little worried though.
  3. I've had the sedan suspension swapped into my obxt for a couple months now but yesterday I just got around to measuring the distance between my tire and wheel well. I was surprised to find a 1" difference between the front and the back. The back sagging that much even with a 3/8" spacer. Do you guys think this could be from installing the springs improperly? I've noticed an annoying clunk noise on the rear whenever I hit bumps or potholes. To me it almost sounds and feels like I'm hitting the bump stops but upon inspection ot looks like I've got plenty of clearance. (cut my stock stops in half). Anyone else experience anything like this? Hardware: New Kyb struts 100,00 mile used LGT sedan Springs 3/8" saggy butt spacers
  4. Post some pictures! Here's mine : http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/11/09/970feb18db225a64659dce62bafa59fb.jpg
  5. I did do the install. You can cut down the bump stops just fine. I cut the stops in half on the front strut and the bump stops in the rear in half as well. The stock boot works great. Only thing I'm not happy about is the 3/8" spacer I went with. Still a little bit of sag in the rear. Going to change out for 1/2" or maybe even 3/4" for a bit of rake.
  6. Reviving dead thread! I've got kyb legacy front and read struts ordered from rockauto. I plan on just cutting down my bump stops instead of replacing them. Any problems with this? Also can someone tell me if I can carry over my stock strut boot cover from my obxt when I do the swap or will I need to order legacy specific ones?
  7. I'm heading to the big stance wars meet this Saturday at Richmond beach Park in Seattle. Meet starts at 12. More info on their Facebook page. Anyone else going?
  8. The time of this event actually works out perfect for me. I'll be there. Looks like it will be a shit show, 1300+ attending now according to fb. I'll be there first thing
  9. I'm in. May I suggest mountain loop to granite falls ice caves instead. We're talking about next Sunday right? When no football is on
  10. I don't know how to subscribe to a forum other than leaving a message!
