4. Configuración e instalación
Installation of coilovers requires mechanical expertise and specialized tools. It is strongly recommended that installation be performed by a certified automotive technician.
General Installation Steps (Consult a vehicle-specific service manual for detailed instructions):
- Safely lift and support the vehicle. Remove wheels.
- Remove existing suspension components (struts, springs, etc.).
- Install the new maXpeedingrods coilover assemblies. Ensure all bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications.
- Adjust the ride height as desired (refer to Section 5).
- Vuelva a instalar las ruedas y baje el vehículo.
- Perform a professional wheel alignment immediately after installation to prevent premature tire wear and ensure safe handling.
Importante: The coilovers are designed for a lowered stance and will not maintain the original ride height of your vehicle.
5. Operación y ajuste
Ajuste de altura de manejo:
The coilovers allow for a ride height adjustment range of 1 to 3 inches lower than stock. This adjustment is performed using the provided C spanners to rotate the locking rings on the coilover body.
- Safely lift and support the vehicle to relieve pressure from the suspension.
- Loosen the upper locking ring using a C spanner.
- Rotate the lower spring perch to achieve the desired ride height. Turning clockwise will lower the vehicle; counter-clockwise will raise it.
- Once the desired height is set, tighten the upper locking ring against the lower spring perch to secure the adjustment.
- Repeat for all four coilovers, ensuring consistent height settings across the axle (front left/right, rear left/right).
- Lower the vehicle and bounce the suspension to settle it. Re-check ride height and adjust as necessary.
Nota: El damping force of these coilovers is preset and not user-adjustable.
