Coilovers help!!!!!! Options

[Celica_racer1123...]

I just got some dropzone coilovers. I recieved 4 springs, 4 sleeves, the rubber rings, the tops, and 4 perches (the one with the lip). Aren't I supposed to get the other 4 perches?

And, when I installed my coilovers, they raised my car instead of lowering it? (Yes, I am still using my stock shocks, but wouldn't they still lower my car?)

WHat did you get for yours?

help!!!

This is what I got a setup like this. What am I doing wrong? HELP! My car is soooo high and ugly!

You know my shock housing needed to be ground down in order for the sleeve to fit on the housing. Could that be it? The sleeve is a 2" diameter right? SO is the shock housing....but it's not a perfect 2" dia. do that's what you have to do for the sleeve to fit on!? I have install pics but I gotta find where I put them.

you are most likely correct. you have to put the perch as low as you can on the sleeve, aaannnnd, grind that ring down that your sleeve is sitting on (based on your description). check out the how-to, and see if that helps. How-To.
