H & R Springs and Spacers Installed

ocN55 · 07-10-2015, 10:24 PM

Is the dust cap still able to be used after being super glued to the spacer?

don't think so cause you have to cut the plastic legs... I mean you could glue it to the hub if you wanted

Arghh

And permanently removing the dustcap is necessary for a 15mm in the rear?

It depends on the spacer.... most spacers won't sit flush with the dustcap on the hub....

the front you can take it off cause it's blind anyway.... maybe just keep the front unmodified and put them in the rear if you take the spacers off

Can you chime in abirmaher ? What did you do with your dust cap situation when you upgraded your wheels?

I was able to replace the dust cap over the spacer. Is did not stay in great but with the wheel over it and secure it sat flush

I found the dust caps were only keeping moisture in the hub,thought they would be better left off anyway

Any time! That being said if you know anyone looking for some springs let me know! Going to coil overs!

One thing i'll point out, it's really hard to see if the strut is leaking without removing it since it would be leaking from the top of the strut. I think, from what i've read.

That would be just great! Maybe you can make some pics of shocks and struts as well. To let everyone who run HR springs sleep well...
