Hi Guys I lowered my car on the weekend and it went down about 6cm on the front (looks MAD) but on the back it went down about 2cm and it looks silly. The little rods that i was adjusting on the back didn't wanna move too much. Does anyone know why is this happening and how to get around it? I'll post some pics later on today

If you cut the rods or wind them too short you will either damage the sensor or snap the rods if you jack the car up!
Reason being when the suspension is fully down the sensor will get to the end of it's travel and the full weight of the wheel, brakes and suspension will be on the rod and sensor....
Do it properly - leave the rods alone and get a height controller

ok Is height controller hard to install? does it control all 4 wheels or...? How do i contact Neil? Sorry for all the questions but i wanna get this done because it looks stupid Thanks for the advice
This controls all 4 wheels together and gives you a 3rd height for Sports mode. You'd have to raise your fronts back to the same level as the rears then use this to change your height.
There are more expensive ones with more features like speed sensitive height and controlling the front/rear separately.

Yep it comes with clear instructions. Still if you don't like doing it yourself, you can have a look at mine or even see if Shaun.K at D.C's is willing to do it, he has done a few before.

Yes I thought so . Wheel alignment would sort it out but dosn't that mean that you would have to align it either up or down & then you cannot move it without another alignment ?
