probably dont have to be tight do they? just tight enough not to rattle, the same as having the soft helpers compressed? so in compression the same, in droop they might rattle? though presumably the torsion bars apply pressure in the reverse direction once re-indexed and you droop past a certain point. TonyORIGINAL: edh trouble is, if you have the main springs tight when the car is in the air, the torsion bars may not be doing much when the car is on the floor (and they are still your main rear springs) bring your jack & tools to Bedford & we can all have a play [
Yes sorry that's what I meant, tight as in so they don't rattle, but bringing the rear up again off the floor! Good job I like a challenge, shame in a way I didn't just buy the RSX 104 kit to start with [ORIGINAL: 944Turboprobably dont have to be tight do they? just tight enough not to rattle, the same as having the soft helpers compressed? so in compression the same, in droop they might rattle? though presumably the torsion bars apply pressure in the reverse direction once re-indexed and you droop past a certain point.

] no need to have re-indexed and I could have enjoyed my weekends being in the car driving instead of underneath!

but that's what the helper springs are for isnt it? strikes me that there's something that doesn't fit as well as it should, rather than the helpers being too soft (although that might also be an option). I'm assuming the helpers are fully compressed at rest, but not fully extended at full droop? if there's any level of force from the helpers on the main springs, they shouldn't be able to move around and knock on the body of the damper.ORIGINAL: andy watsonYes sorry that's what I meant, tight as in so they don't rattle, but bringing the rear up again off the floor!

. They are probably a little irrelevant for you but I do have a pair of 10.5" 200lb springs from the 205 which are simply one rate. I removed them as IMO the car was a little too stiff on the front in addition to sitting too high (I dropped down a rate on the springs). However, the car is at a unit (although I could swing by Cov on the way ).

] She is sitting a little lower on the rear but I can raise her on the adjusters, it is a lot lower than I had originally wanted - But I quite like it
] It was vibrating when under load, not sure what that was? anyway she is raised on the adjusters and will post some pics later but here is another of the slammed beast....
