Eibach Sportline Bumpstop to Chassis clearance

[The01Cav]

So I just wanted to post this picture of what my clearance is from the bumpstop to the chassis of the car. This really shows the lack of suspension travel and this is with the eibach supplied bump stop. I really think that the Eibachs seem to sag. Mind you this is just the normal weight of the car sitting in the driveway with no subwoofers or anything like that in the trunk, just the car how it would naturally be from the factory minus dual exhaust and a roush spoiler.

Wow. I bet train tracks are fun to cross.

You take them VERY SLOWLY. I know I've pissed some people off at how slow I take driveways or any kind of bumps in the road after switching to the SL's. Fuck em', they'll live, lol.

Wow...what drop is that?

I'd first try to knock a 1/2-3/4" off the supplied eibach ones which appear to be the FRPP ones. I can see the logo.

And about your sag, has the ride height decreased over time? Is the rear lower than the front?

 

[Sky Render]

Wow, I knew those things were low, but that's just about undrivable.

Eh, who needs suspension travel anyway? Wow, that is close. Even with cut bumpstops there won't be much travel.

I swear mine aren't that close, I would think it would ride worse if it really was.

I think i should replace mine im still running stock ones

I haven't measured anymore, but the eibach bump stops are a good amount shorter than the oem bump stops. I am contemplating changing the springs for H&R race springs with bilstein hd struts and shocks. Only issue is that I really like the low look of the car...

 

[stang8psi]

damn thats close!

I hope mine never sag or get that close!

 

[Makdaddy]

hey

is the tight winding of the spring up towards the top of the car or at the bottom of the car?
I cant really tell in that pic

 

[fdjizm]

Cut the bump stop more? price to be "low" i guess? lol

Ill trade my k springs for your sportlines.

Got sportlines on the shelby, and the house i just bought to get to the main road i got to cross a railroad, so thats fun, but unless i hit a hole or something these springs do fine for me over bumps.

The binding coils are up top like they instruct you to do.

Cool Beans that would be correct
Pic just looked odd at that angle

My GF has sportline springs. I left the stock bump stops on it rides smooth as glass. I was surprised.

Maybe i'll just suck it up throw some decent shocks and struts on it and call it a day. I am really wanting to put bilstein HD's on it, but might save some cash and throw Koni STR.T's on it.

I ended up cutting about a 1/4 inch of the bumpstop.

Koni STR.Ts are a good upgrade to the stock ones in the meantime, I installed them a few weeks ago and they're great.
