1. Začetna nastavitev višine: Before installing, set the coilovers to a preliminary ride height. Refer to Section 5 for detailed adjustment procedures.
2. Install Upper Mount: Carefully position the new coilover assembly into the vehicle and secure the upper mounting bolts.
3. Install Lower Mount: Align the lower mounting points and secure them with the appropriate bolts.
4. Ponovno priključite komponente: Reattach any brake lines, ABS sensors, and sway bar links that were disconnected. Ensure all lines and wires are clear of moving parts.
5. Repeat for all corners: Follow the same procedure for the remaining three wheels.
6. Končni navor: Once all coilovers are installed, re-check and torque all fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.

5. Nastavitev in prilagoditev

Your maXpeedingrods coilovers offer adjustable ride height and preset damping for optimal performance.

5.1. Nastavitev višine vožnje

The ride height can be adjusted by rotating the lower mount on the threaded shock body. This allows for a lowering range of 1-3 inches from the original ride height.

1. Loosen the locking ring located above the lower mount using the provided adjustment wrench.
2. Rotate the lower mount clockwise to lower the vehicle or counter-clockwise to raise it.
3. Once the desired height is achieved, tighten the locking ring securely against the lower mount.
4. Ensure both sides of an axle (front or rear) are adjusted to the same height to prevent uneven loading.

5.2. Damping Adjustment

These coilovers come with a factory preset damping value. This setting is optimized to maintain consistent and predictable handling characteristics and reduce the risk of overloading the suspension system. No user adjustment for damping is required or possible with this model.

6. Delovni vidiki

• Poravnava koles: A professional wheel alignment is crucial immediately after installation and any significant ride height adjustments. This ensures correct steering geometry and prevents premature tire wear.
• Slog vožnje: While coilovers enhance performance, always drive responsibly and be aware of changes in vehicle dynamics, especially with a lowered ride height.

7. Vzdrževanje

• Redni pregled: Periodically inspect the coilovers for any signs of damage, leaks, or loose fasteners. Check for corrosion, especially on threaded sections.
• Čiščenje: Keep the coilovers clean, especially the threaded sections, to prevent dirt and debris from hindering adjustments or causing wear. Use mild soap and water.
• Mazanje: Apply a thin layer of anti-seize lubricant to the threaded sections and locking rings during initial installation and periodically thereafter to ensure smooth height adjustments and prevent seizing.

8. Odpravljanje težav

• Nenavadni zvoki: If you hear clunking or squeaking noises, re-check all mounting bolts for proper torque. Inspect for any components rubbing or loose.
• Neenakomerna višina vožnje: Ensure that the ride height is set equally on both sides of the vehicle (front and rear). A professional alignment can also help diagnose and correct unevenness.
• Slabo ravnanje: Verify that all components are installed correctly and securely. A professional wheel alignment is critical for optimal handling after suspension modifications.
