SPL ruca hitting the frame

[edmorl]

I have an s13 with PBM subframe risers and RLCA. With the RLCA's, I had to shorten the coilover length to compensate for the extended ball joint. Now, the SPL RUCA hits the frame on the subframe side.

What options do I have ? Hammer the frame ?

since raising your car is def not an option. yes either hammer the lip of the frame
or cut a small 1x1 piece off. which is what i did. gl

You sure you don't have them installed backwards?

Also looks like the coils are hitting the RUCA.

Yep, you have them on the wrong sides... They should pass infront of the coilover, not the backside.

I recall SPL rucas not working with PBM coils.

Also, don't SPL rucas curve so that they will not hit the subframe?

Arent there supposed to be spacers on the inside of the lower shock mount to prevent this?

Yes, they have a slight angle designed in to give more clearance to slammed cars. As stated, he has them on the wrong sides.

Well this is embarrassing. Thanks for clearing that up!
