compress spring

[redhot27]

mga tsikoters..does anyone here nakagamit na ng compress spring..yung clamp na kinakabit sa spring para ma lower yung car, instead of buying a lowering spring..im planning to try this kasi to my car..ok kaya to in terms of performance and life of the spring? thnks in advance.

narinig ko na toh... nung naka escape pa kame... sbi ng couz ko mas lowered nga daw... i dont know if its applicable sa sa kotche dahil suv ang escape which has higher ground clearance(certainly)...never tried it...

san nga ba meron nito?

pede siguro diy ang pagkakabit nito e noh? i

would like to try it in my altis kasi ang laki ng ground clearance nung naglagay ako ng 17" mags....anu nga po pala car niyo sir?

300 petot lang pa compress ng springs...mas mura nga naman kesa bibili ka ng surplus...yung kakilala ko din na naka adventure na naka 17s, compressed springs yung sa harap nya...tinanong ko sya kung ok pa pangilalim nya, sabi nya ok pa naman daw, 8mos na wala pang nasisira...take note, naka fluid shocks sya, di pa gas shocks...

Nasubukan ko tong compress spring on my 03 corolla altis, nung nagapalit kasi ako ng 17" rims medyo ang taas ng ground clearance pag hindi lowered para siyang innova, since wala ng budget for a lowering spring i settled for the compress spring. but i would not recommend it to anyone, sumakit ang ulo ko maganda ngang tignan mabubutas naman bulsa mo sa maintenance ng suspension buti nalang that time covered pa ng warranty yong altis ko kaya everytime magleak yong mga shocks pinapapalitan ko buti nalang yong chief mechanic sa toyota marikina mabait, pero nung nagexpire na yong warranty, sa CRUVEN na ako nagpapagawa kasi mura lang at magagaling. For the ride naman hindi siya ganun katagtag, maganda pa rin magdala pero ang sakit pa rin sa ulo kaya bro kung ako sayo invest ka nalng sa lowering springs.

btw, heres my altis nakacompress spring lang yan

"compressed" springs are dangerous because the metal has been re-heated in a uncontrolled way to soften the spring at a certain point. This uncontrolled heating can cause the heated portion to crack since it was weakened by the heating.

Clamps are ok for display but driving on clamps can be annoying because the clamps will rattle and can move around the spring as it compresses as you drive your car.

If you want to lower your car, don't take the short cut because you will probably spend more on repairs later.

Normally... I don't like lowering a car with springs only... especially with a car like the Altis...

Cars with soft shock absorbers will wear them out very quickly with lowering springs. And the Corolla already has shocks that are too soft to survive the Altis's springing rates for too long.

If you want to lower, do it right... buy lowering springs and buy upgraded shocks. Otherwise, just save your money and get a good set of mags.

thank you mga sir sa repy..by the way my car is ford lynx lsi 2002 model..pina check ko na sa isang auto repair shop and sabi nila pwede daw kabitan yung spring ko ng clamp para ma lower..icocompress lang nila..it will cost me 2800, harap at likod na yun..

cguro nga i will invest money na lang para sa lowering spring talaga and gas type shock absorbers..thank you mga tsikoters for the reply, it was a big help for me.
