Default Intrax/Koni...Front Ride Height SUCKS!!!

All in all I am very happy with the Intrax/Koni setup I just got installed yesterday. I did 2turns and 5turns on the Koni's and I could have maybe even gone more. Either way, the whole setup is very tight, and fun to drive on. The rear looks slammed, but the front could have gone about another 1". This is all very decieving considering I remember reading that the front would be dropped more than the rear.

Maybe soon enough I will have pictures.

Default Go back a day in the messages. I think many people are having that problem.

Its unclear if its a bad install or bad parts, but its definitely not right.

Easily 75% of the Intrax installs I've seen have been too high in the front, but a number of people posted in response to my comments with pics that are clearly correct. *please* post pics, and if you figure out why its wrong on your car, post because quite a number of people are having the same problem.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/369308.phtml">My post yesterday about it</a></li></ul>

Default REMOVE THE TOP METAL RING ON FRONT STRUT TOWERS!!!!!

It will make all the difference in the world,also cut the foam rubber stop in half to make sure it does not hit too soon being lowered!!! That is how mine was installed and it works awesome. Front shocks turn 2.5 rear 5 turns and the handling is PERFECT!
