I haven't driven much since they were installed yesterday. Feels smooth but hard to tell handling since the alignment is very off. I'm currently working on the toe arms and rear lower control arms now. Alignment should be this week then I'll have a full review

If you gwt any noise coming from them. Losin them back up and then put all the weight on the stand then torque down. You don't want to bind the bushings ;)

how did the stock end links fit with that 22 thread ride height mine came with adjustable end links and they are to short unless I have the coilover fully extended if I lower the coiler to say 50mm the stock front and the adjustable fully extenedwd are to short ?? any idea
@MikeB-yn7cs Жыл бұрын
Shouldnt the front strut tower control arm (connects strut to swaybar) be adjustable to keep the height (and tension) of the swaybar the same when lowering the car? I noticed on MAPerformances video of the same shocks on the same car that they put adjustable front end links on for that purpose of keeping the swaybar function the same.
@JoeyMontalto Жыл бұрын
I noticed that in their video. Mine box did not come with front endlinks

To properly torque the front endlinks did you do this while your car was on the ground? Trying to figure the best way to do this and avoid clunking! 🙏
@JoeyMontalto 8 ай бұрын
I used a jack and jacked up the control arm to make the endlink meet with the strut mount. Tighten them very tight. Never had an issue with the front clunking like you mentioned

I’ve got my FA500’s on mine but I am getting clunking in the rear and front. I’ve checked preload and I’ve torqued everything down to spec and for some reason I am still getting the noises. Can’t figure out why. Rear end links are Cobb and the front end links are the adjustable ones that came from FA with the coil overs. Any advice??

You cannot. Top hats are different and bottom mount are different. The valving in the struts are also different as most these companies did some r&d

Hey Joey I installed Fortune Auto 500 from a shop and there rear had a slight camber on both sides. Is this normal from your experience?
@JoeyMontalto Жыл бұрын
Hey thanks for watching. Yes, when lowering the car it will get more camber. You can correct the camber in the front but the rear needs aftermarket control arms to adjust camber. I recommend doing the toe arm as well!

How do you know to “max” out the cambers? What is the process of maxing them out?
@JoeyMontalto Жыл бұрын
When I install coils I eye ball the camber after the ride height is set. From there I drive to the alignment shop and they do an alignment to dial it in. To adjust camber just loosen the 4 Allen head bolts on each top hat up top and then move the strut by hand

Much too low , no space for absorption, car will jump and handle badly on normal roads. Never buy coilovers from unknown brands. Wait for something from Eibach, Bilstein, Ohlins etc.

Fortune auto is definitely not a unknown brand. Usually if your not familiar with coilovers you should go to a shop. There tons of adjustments that Usually have to be made. Also wheel choice etc affects it. I had rev 9 which is basically owned by godspeed and several other names it goes by. Had them on my camaro and no issues.
