people with bullit springs need some help

spike_africa · 07-05-2006, 07:41 PM

So i got my bullit springs on about a week ago very easy to install ps took just over 2 and 1/2 hours myself. Anyhow the back looks great but the front still looks to high. I am only about 1/4 lower then stock granted it been one week but damn i thought it would settle more then that. I am starting to think i need to pull the rubber isolater off the bottom to help lower it a hair more. then it would look nice without being to low.

Anyone got some info or shots of those springs on your car or just what the height you have off the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender?

Oh yeah and yeah no more 4x4 for my stang So piss off lance :clap: j/k.

I have these springs and the drop is nominal. I never measured, so I can't be much help. But here are some pics about 6 months after the install.

i think the drop is great in the back almost a full inch (just over 3/4") but the front is barley down a 1/4". Do you know how long it took for them to setttle?

I got mine used from someone here forget the name but the backs were used for a bit , hence why they settled so fast. The fronts were never used it looks like as they are still settling i guess.

Do you think you could meausre from the top of your tire to the fender for me, pretty please?

I have the same springs but car is in the shop. BTW Blake nice pics Ive been MIA and just saw them.

Thanks Venom....

Dustin, I will take some measurements for ya....be back in a sec.

WaterDR · 07-06-2006, 07:17 PM

Dustin...measurements were a bit tough because of the roundness of the tire, so I measured fromt he center of the rim to the fender. The front is 15.5 inches and the back is 15.375 inches. It is about 2 inches in the back from the tire to the rim and about 2.25 in the front.

I would really like to drop the front about 0.5 to 0.75 inches, but it already hits things as it is.

spike_africa · 07-06-2006, 07:25 PM

thanks alot man, i am gonna go look at mine and see if its really far off or if it just needs to settle more. I love the Back its perfect. But the front is still high by like 1/2" to me just gotta see how much more of a drop i should be at. Let me go look at my heights real fast.

spike_africa · 07-06-2006, 07:29 PM

OK so i am at 16" form center of rim to the fender. So yeah i knew it was sitting to high. I am just a hair lower then stock at the moment.

I guess i need to drive it more ot let it settle. I never thought it would take more then a week for that. But every time i drive it hard and brake hard it seems to bring it down more so i guess its just taking its sweet time to settle in.

*Lances03SVT* · 07-06-2006, 07:37 PM

Yea it just takes a little time.

Icefreezen · 07-06-2006, 07:40 PM

Shoulda got C-springs like me..........:shifty:

jjtgiants · 07-06-2006, 07:45 PM

I say go down to your local jenny craig and find a few fat chicks and ask them to take a ride with you....maybe the extra weight will help the springs settle! ha ha ha
