Drylube only don't use grease, as the threads will attract way to much dirt and grime that will be a pain in the ass later. Secondly use a digital caliper to measure preload, 3-5mm is usually good, if you put to much you will put a drag on the rollerbearings in the top hats. As a couple of weeks go by you'll need to readjust your ride height so be prepared to get consecutive alignments to get it just right

I got to say I'm pretty disappointed with my coilovers. The rears ride fine, the fronts are extremely harsh over bumps. Manhole covers and transitions between 2 road surfaces is horrible. I've tried adjusting preload and adjusting the compression. Nothing helps.

OK lets see if I can get all 5. I like the strut tower brace for the GXP and those brakes tho. For the GTP, I like the oil catch can (I want/need it), the thermostat housing and of course there is the coilovers. they already talked about the Equalizer Downpipe but its new so. There is something a little different going on with that intake not sure if something new or just some personal mods??? also if u made it this far and you know what brand rims that is let me know please

Cool video! I've gotta 2000 gt coupe and at the moment it's a basket case.... really needs help w suspension, I've just received zzp Gen 2 lowering coils but the front don't have pigtail ends like the originals do, I don't think I can put em in because it looks like w out the pigtail end they won't seat in up top,, just the front are the concern,, the rear lowering coils have the pigtail end but it's the front that don't, so I'm not too sure until I take it apart,, now in this video if that's actually true about the zzp coilovers being able to adjust up to factory ride height?? I might consider these! But I'd still lower it just not an 1.5,, more like .5" bearly want lower it much., just a little should be fine 5 mine

Are you guys all stupid? It's a video on how to take OFF a suspension not just add one... the 3800 suspension would be totally different. If you wanna swap a 3800 out, this video is useless. The fact they did an engine swap and that this car is NOT a 3800 like the video suggests.. is at least worth a mention.

A bilstein suspension only comes on a v8 LS4.. he is NOT doing a swap on a 3800.. he took out an LS to put a 3800.. with is Crazy. But a real gtp 3800 would NOT have that suspension.. this is a LS4 V8 suspension swap.

Yea, that means nothing all of our stuff for wbodies is interchangeable. Same suspension components will work on 3800s. It's a wbody suspension mod.
@dougbarnhart4947 2 жыл бұрын
It DOES matter lol... the video shows how to remove a suspension.. not just add a new one. You just told the world you were taking off a 3800 suspension. This is false. You took off an LS4 suspension. How would this help you take off a 3800 suspension? It would be totally different. The fact you didn't even mention you did a motor swap and this car is NOT a 3800 is at least worth a mention. The video is misleading.

@@dougbarnhart4947 There is both a 3800 vehicle and an ls4 vehicle in this video. Neither have differences in suspension, it’s only strut/spring package differences from the factory. Both share all of the same components and require nothing different.

Omg.. insane.. the stock suspension on a 3800 car would be totally different. The coil over may fit both.. but its NOT a 3800 swap he is doing. He took a LS4 with a bilstien suspension.. which only comes in the LS4 version and put a 3800 in a GXP which is V8 only...he is taking the suspension off a stock gxp V8... the stock suspension on a real 3800 would not be bilstein. It a good video.. its just not a 3800
