Lowering a Hybrid

[soulsea]

If they used the stock ones it will just ride on them or if they are close to the pads now you can cut off some of the yellow lower part and will give you more clearance. Just need to know how much space we have to work with.

I think I understand. Btw, I just looked in the boxes with the parts they took off my truck and the old dirty reddish ones are in there so I assume the new yellow ones were installed.

I'll go out in the morning and try to measure what you asked, I hope I can squeeze under there to do it.

no problem and for the front once you get it aligned will be fine.

in rear honestly belltech street performance shocks will help it out. the 5305 is a proven spring to ride good so we just need to get this all dialed in

it will just will need new rear shocks if worse comes to worse.

my djm 3/5.5 kit another guys (68 years old) put it in over the weekend and loves the ride had a 2/3 mcgaughys on it before wanted it lower and ride better. He keps the mcgaughys shocks in then wanted teh belltechs over nighted and put those in today and said the ride he cant complain at all.

what Kit did you Use Soul? Tony is there upgrade struts for the rear?

 

[NORCAL SS]

same kit as you did.

rear belltech makes the street performance shock with it yes.

Ok well first things first ... let me:

1. Measure that space you asked and see if anything is wrong with the installation.
2. Get her aligned.
3. Figure out how to trim the front liner (some instructions would be greatly appreciated).

See how she rides after all that, and if more stuff like shocks or anything else is needed, we'll deal with it.

lol

Not sure what's going to happen yet ... I was too busy today to get anything done, so tomorrow I'll get her aligned and measure. Then we'll take it from there.
