I just purchased a set of function and form type 1 coilovers and i wanted to if would have any issues installing them on my 06 TL. Hoping to receive any tips if there are other things that i would have to change on the suspension.

where did you order from and what car are they designed for (does it say "TL" "TSX" or "ACCORD" on the box)

jjoaquin

I ordered them off ebay and it was only labeled for 04-08 tl

Thanks guys really helpful

I would highly recommend a rear camber kit to save your tires. Otherwise you will be getting new ones every 2 months.

jjoaquin

what camber kit do you recommend for the rear?

Hey OP after you install those coilovers please let me know how it feels, rides and handles ok . Im thinking about getting the same F2 type 1.

YOOO mucho importante... when u do the rear, disconnect the sway bar links ON BOTH SIDES then continue the remove and install...make the final step re-conecting the sway bar links.

if u completly do one side, ur sway bar will be sitting higher then ur stock side that u havnt done yet. and when u go the disconnect the sway bar on the other side it will suck balls. basicaly.

other then that its super easy.

n i got the ingalls rear chamber. also easy install.

good luck homie

ht = specially tuned dampers from Mr Heeltoe!

I think only the HT spec also comes with a built on top hat..otherwise youd have to re-use ur stock one or buy a new one

LostSol

This.

HT-Spec Coilovers are built by F&F to HT's specs, and come with the proper tophat to fit the TL
