Ohlins Coilover Setup

[FSUZ33]

I took measurements of the loaded spring lengths before I started pulling them apart. That, compared to the unloaded spring lengths would get you a 'Sakebomb' preload measurement, however that may change based on spring rate...idk Also, I don't know IF millimeter precision is important. Generally, 5mm from tight is considered perfectly fine.

What's the thread pitch of the front upper top plate bolts? Guess I should replace those now. I assume that OEM plate should stay there.

1.25 is the thread pitch you want. I went with 35mm.

I remember you saying you measured everything out, I hope they get back to me quicker Then not on this. I want to finish up under the car with all but the end links. I will do those once stance is set and aligned. interior sometime next week.

M6 or M8?...or M10? Not looking at them but they can't be M6.
I did ONLY ask for the pitch...my bad.

lol crap I can’t remember, too many numbers running through my head I want to say 10mm.

I do feel like a dumb _ss though. Apparently I totally missed any preset in my set up. I am running Apex wheels with different offsets so nothing is preset. Need to do all the set up ie: free length/preload myself based off tire wheel combo and desired preload. So back to the beginning, but at least the SPL parts are on. LOL

My son (whom I refused to ask for help and teaches this stuff) reply was simple and ruthless. “How are you fenders” Oh My how things reverse as your children age.
