lowered rear problem....

Recommended Posts

Ok so i got my standard springs compressed to a 65mm drop... (think it was toooooo far)

Installed them, an went to take for a drive, backed out an went to drive off slowly to hear a bang an the wheel locked up... was going like 1km/hr (watchn the whole time)

Reversed it up an tryed again thinkn the spring wasnt in properly... did it again.

To scared to try again..

Any theorys to what it could be???

E36 320i sedan

Jack up the back of the car and put it safely on some stands, then i would suggest getting a torch and having a real good look around all the suspension components to look for anythin thats been rubbing or scuffing and that should let you know whats not working properly. Checking everything over is aways a good start when sonething has gone wrong.

Good luck anyway dude
