Im almost done with my first tube chssis build and im haveing a problem with where my coilovers are sitting since i charged them. ive got fox 2.0 remote 14" coil overs in the front and 16" emulsion in the rear. i was shooting for 5 up and 9 down in the front and 6 up and 10 down n the rear. when i first got my shocks, i depressurized them so could work with them easier. after weighing it i got the numbers and did the math and got the spring weights for each wheel. i put the springs on and they sat at perfect ride height, althought i had to take the adjuster nut down 3"
i charged the shocks up yesterday to 200 psi with no load on shocks and when i sat it down it ws at 9 in the front and 10 in the rear.... way high.
any ideas as to why its sitting so high now?
here are my numbers and coil rates
sprung
lf..1178 rf.. 1091 lr.. 848 rr.. 973
unsprung
491 519 441 430
fronts are 200 lower and 130 upper both 14"
rears are 125 lower and 100 upper both 16"
