I thinkl you need a sprin compressing tool, to compress the spring so that the disc have slack to be bolted down

well they are in. The front runs butifully and isn't bouncy at all, but the back I pulled the soft spring becuase it wasn't low enough so now that is bouncy as all get out but we are gonna cut the hard sping down some back there so we can put in the soft spring. So it should all ride good after that. This is a good coilover setup when all the parts are installed and I will tell u how it rides tomorrow after we fix the back


Ohh ya and get out the digee camera and take some pics for my members rides too I guess
