Does the lowered spring cause binding from DCCD??

BBBsti LTD · 12-30-2006, 01:52 PM

I installed the RCE!!!! and when entering my garage sideways to avoid to srape the front lip I feel the cars like binding or a weird motion/sound from the DCCD, it feel like one tire is in the air. Is this cause because of hte lowered center of gravity???

Do you have upgraded swaybars? My car lifts wheels in the air every time I go up the curb to my driveway. In order to avoid the differentials freaking out trying to get traction, you need to get a running start and get up the driveway at an angle (to not bottom out) and have enough speed to not need the gas peddle until you are over the curb and all 4 tires are on the ground.

My car did not have this problem with curbs when I had stiff lowering springs. It began to slightly have the wheel lift when I added swaybars. Now with Tein Flex coilovers and the swaybars my car is stiff as a board and the wheels lift like crazy going up curbs or any other very uneven surface.

Hope that helps.

This happens to me to. Push and hold the cluth in so you just roll up it, then after you are most of the way up slap it in first and go. That is how I avoid it. Sometimes it is unavoidabe though. It is a horrible sound though
