Re: STI Suspension Swap Project

Just a fun little bit of info: I had to raise the front of the car to get it onto the U-Haul trailer that brought it home the other week (1200 miles in a POS U-Haul cube van does not make for happy Chris). There's still adjustment left, I didn't try to max it out, but this is how high she's currently sitting:



I haven't touched the rear, didn't need to adjust anything to fit the trailer. Raising the front was about 20 minutes work with hand tools and a floor jack. Amusingly, I had to drive the front wheels onto 2X4's AND remove the gripper thing from the jack to get it under the side of the car.
