Coilover problems
Hey I just got some coilovers for my civic. Is anyone else haveing problems with the installation? My problem is on the back. The spring only has about 1/4 of an inch of travel. The top collar that sets on the sping is almost hitting the top of the strut. Please help

Rep Power: 0 Did you take off the bump stops on the rear struts? The bottom of the coil sleeve should be sitting against the very bottom of the stock lower spring perch, and you have to take off the stock rear bump stops to do that. Then you should have about 6" of travel for the spring.
