Will I clear the Dyno ... I am running Eibach Lowering Springs? ---

[alwayscode390]

I want to go get the car dyno'd , but am worried I wont clear the drums in the ground with my stock front spoiler.

Can they usually drop the drums so you can drive over them, then lift them back up?

Its going to be a DynoJet Dyno , thanks ---

Just lay a 2x4 in front of and back of the roller to clear it.

What is your clearance to the lowest point of the front rake? Mine is 2.5" with those springs?

I just measured it at 3.75" to the lowest point on the front spoiler.

I wonder why you are so much lower? What tire size are you running? Do you clear the dyno?

Thanks everyone for the tips and heads up ---

I have lowering caps as well but the math still does not add up.. Tires are 285/30/19's. I decided that 2.5” is too low and I scrapped everything so I put the stock springs back on but left the lowering caps. I'm at 4” now, The eiback springs seemed to be rated for less weigh than stated.

Im starting to wonder if I only have the lowering springs in the rear?

I will have to do a good look up front to see.

I have seen them on the back ... and saw a receipt for the Eibach spring kit from the previous owner.

I will get back with ya on my tire size too ... I only have the rears memorized.

Only had the car 2 weeks now ... its a 2001 GTS.

Thanks for the help ---

I have Eibach springs and caps. No problems clearing the drums on a dynojet

 

[alwayscode390]

Are the CAPS part of the spring kit or an added peice?

I have never heard of them before ... what exactly are they?

Thanks ---

The caps are where the springs seat at the top of the setup. Lowering caps allow the springs to seat deeper and thus lowering the chassis approx .5” Google them for a pix or look on ebay or a viper parts vendor.
