ISC Coilover Help

I just installed my ISC's and the rear Ingall caster/camber kit, the car feels almost like it has a floating/slush feeling to it. Been looking around for a fix and apparently Im supposed to adjust the preload prior to install...

1 Will it be 'catastrophic' for the shocks, should I not drive it?
2 Can I adjust the preload while they are on the car?
3 How do I adjust to the recommended settings, is it just measuring how compressed the springs are?
4 Can it be the Ingall's?

Sorry, newb trying to get by... car looks sick tho



Raised the rear up about 1.5 inches, havent taken a pic yet

Get an alignment after installing the camber kit. Your toe is prob way off and will give you an unstable feeling. I can't comment on the isc coil overs since I don't have them

You probably didn't install the coilovers correctly. Take a look at this link in regards to setting the pre-load.

you should go back and adjust the preload to what is recommended. should be able to do it on the car but may be a pain in the ass. and I definitely agree with sockr1....get an alignment as soon as you fix it. car will feel worlds different. I have isc's on my car too and I LOVE them.

Couldn't find a shop in my area to do my alignment, finally went to a local rim/tire shop and they were able to get it done. Drives F awesome... basically close to stock. I also got this great deal on some 530's with tires. Going back to get them in about a week - thanks for the help!

This is correct. Every couple months this same question is posted by someone and every time a proper alignment fixes the issue.
