Hi guys.


My EB-4 has terrible suspension!! the rear isnt too bad and rebounds fine, the front however is a different story all together.

if i push down on the front end it nearly touched the floor and hardly comes back up.....lifting the car returns the suspension.


i have tried moving the front shocks around in various positions but its always the same.

I'm pretty sure they are oil filled shocks? so could it be possible the oil has leaked out? or could it be the springs?

i have blue springs fitted ( oem is yellow ) i tried fitting the yellows and its alot worse.


if you have a link to some good springs and shock oil please do post it up :D

( I'm in the uk if that helps )



Any help would be much appreciated!!

its either your spring is too weak it can't push back enough the shock, or your oil is very thick.
 
ok, thank you.


i may just try putting my spare rear springs in the front and see how that does or if there too suppressed due to the size of the front shocks, i might cut them down as i have 2 spare sets for both ends.

failing that, would you know how the shocks come apart to add/remove oil?
 
Remove the shocks and unscrew the cap to check for oil.
