    I just picked up an 06 viper that had these installed. Rears are scraping a bit in really hard cornering...so this Video is a LIFESAVER! Awesome!

      I’m glad it helped! They’re easy to adjust fortunately. Mine scraped a little bit initially. I stiffened up the dampening but I also raised the rear a touch on mine after driving it around a bit

    Really enjoyed the video. I have Motons on my Gen IV Coupe but enjoyed everything. Great production & video.

    Just purchased these for mine last week. Such a game changer. Can't wait to get mine installed. Great video!

      Thank you! I ended up going up 5 clicks on the dampening on all 4 corners just FYI. It was still a little soft after the install. fortunately, you can just stick your arm up there and turn them so you can play with the dampening until you get it where you want.

    Nice job! Are you planning on an alignment? I've read that Viper's require some extra TLC in the alignment process, especially when lowered.

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  3 роки тому +2

      I got it aligned right after I installed the coilovers. There is nothing special that needs to be done. My alignment guy had it done in 30 mins.

    Awesome job. Where did you get your BC’s? Is there a specific part #? My Gen IV needs an upgrade.

    Do you know how much of a drop the BC coilovers allow? Like how low you can drop the Viper with regular BC coilovers? There is an extreme low version, which is 1inch lower, so trying to determine which one I want to order

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  Рік тому +1

      The extreme low to me seems like overkill. Mine still had plenty of downward adjustment left on them.

    Nice work, I I counted the same issue with the swaybar so that's 100% what was going on there. Curious if you changed the dampening settings or just stuck with how them came?

    • @RobsHouse

      I went up 5 clicks on all 4 corners for dampening. Out of the box it was too soft/bouncy for my liking

    How was the ride quality over all?

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  Рік тому +1

      The coilovers have adjustable dampers so you can make it soft or hard depending on your preferences. I had mine set pretty stiff for spirited driving. Overall really good quality in my opinion.

    Did you upgrade to the Swift springs? What spring rates did you go with?

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  3 роки тому

      10KG front and 12KG rear. Those are the default rates.

    Currently doing the same to my 06 coupe. Curious what your final ride height was in the front and rear and what the dampening setting you went with was? PS. That piece of rubber trick on the rears was a life saver thank you!.

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  3 роки тому +1

      I want to say it’s like 26.5” from the ground to the top of the front wheel well and 27.5” for the rear? I can double check tomorrow. Dampening I went up 5 clicks all around to stiffen. It’s a 30 click adjustment and they start you dead center so 5 clicks is like 33% stiffer toward the max (which would be 100%). It’s stiff but it’s not back-breaking when you hit bumps.
      Glad the video helped! It took me a little bit to figure out how to get those rears out.

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  3 роки тому +1

      I double checked it today. 26.5” front and 27.5” rear is the ride height. Didn’t adjust anything height wise. Just slapped the coils on and that’s how she sat. All I tweaked was dampening

      Man you lucked out I'm high on the front. Letting it sit and settle for a bit. Being in Canada it's put away for the winter right now.

    • @RobsHouse
      @RobsHouse  3 роки тому +1

      It’s way higher when you first put it back on the ground. You gotta drive it to let it settle. Don’t make any adjustments until you figure out where it settles when you take it out of winter storage.

      Air intake, full Belanger exhaust then she will be back on the road by May.
