Re: Urgent: Need help -> Setting pre-load on Omni Coils
oh man... nothing EVER goes smooth installing stuff on my ride...
what ****ing confused me was my mechanic did so much more work and kept the fork on the shock when putting in my s-techs
also he used an air gun for a lot of things he SHOULDNT have been using an air gun for, one fine example was the ****ing bolts on top of my shock tower... took like 10-15 mins just for my buddy to get em loose
snapped the pinch bolt on the fork thats at the bottom of the shock,
the bolt snapped like a twig we didnt even put a lot of pressure on it
little pressure, felt it budge, pb blaster, hammered the bolt a little, a bit more pressure and SNAP
gotta take it to my mechanic to put in the front coils since hes gotta drill out the pinch bolt for me anyways
it seemed like to be able to have enough space to drill out the bolt we'd have to remove the CV boot, friend was not comfortable doing that so he left it
kinda frustrated, found some ****ed up tire wear in the front as well :|
coils are already set up just to be dropped in now, that was the only productive thing achieved on friday
