WHY ME? How can everybody else ride slammed?

I am mad because I see everyone elses pictures with their cars slammed to the ground on coils or whatever.
I see people around town with one finger gaps and left.

OKOK I have the drop BUT, why do I have to bang my bumpstops (I cut them more than half way off )

I have dropzone coilovers with tokico blues. The coils are only like halfway down. All I want is a little less than 2 finger gap on the front.
The back is fine. But the front bounces like hell and bangs my bumpstops all the time.
What can I do. Why the hell are the tokicos sh!tting on me like this? Are they the culprit?

Are you sure you got the springs the right way round?

everybody that made logical replies thanks./

Dont post pictures about stupud ass trucks whenI wasnt even asking about that. Not relevant to the subject at all. If thats your truck and you just want people to see it then make a seperate thread. Dumbass.
And yeah the truck looks like shit.

Many People have told me that tokicos arent stiff enough for the front

wow angry.

i've never heard of dropzone coilovers, so i can't vouch for their quality.

i do know that they will have much shorter, stiffer coils than a reg drop spring. the tokicos ride great on my eibach pro kit, so i don't know what to tell you.

maybe the spring rate is too stiff for your shocks.

and have you asked the other people that are riding around slammed? i bet they're aren't all riding on clouds like you think. you sacrifice when you slam your ride, especially with a coilover kit like the one on your car.

aiight heres what happened

okay I'pm sorry for bashing tokico so bad.
I wasnt bangin the bumpstops because of the shoz.
WHAT IT WAS WAS.... my control arm was bangin onthe inner fender well. All I had to do was break out the grinder and do a little cutting, and it rides good. "Almost like stock"

Tokico is cool in my book now.
And as for the dropzone coilovers, I thinnk its a great bet for 69 bux. My ride isnt harsh at all

Peace:bandit:
