Tein Springs

Just ordered my Tein STechs for my 10LB and I have a couple questions...
Is there some DYI instructions for this. I cant seem to find one..
If you would recommend cutting the bumpstops and if so how much. Thanks for the help!!
I'll be sure to post pics of before and after

no prob. Ive heard a lot of good things about MicroImage and the price was good so it was a no brainer. Springs should be in tomorrow (just as planned, not late) and will probably throw them on this weekend. Ill be shopping from MicroImage very soon again!!

How about a picture? I just picked up a used set of Tein sTechs (which I will be installing this weekend) and am dying to see what my car is going to look like with them on.

*This is from the write up linked. Cut and keep the right side. I made the mistaking of being conservative and kept the plastic and had to go back in there a second time! Yes, a second time!! (I put in the S. Techs)

*For the front, you might want to invest on a angled wrench

*Leverage is your friend. Prepare to give the allen wrench some extra leverage in the front. In the back- moar leverage for the wrench.

*One side at a time so you can use the other side for reference.


It's a great write-up.

I gut the bumpstops to the specs that Tein suggests in the provided instructions. I believe it was like 2 inches of cut, it's been quite a while since I did it. Love the Teins!

Nice! I never got to mine this weekend, since I spent the weekend working on the house, replacing a door and window and residing an entire exterior wall.

To post pics, you can either click on the "reply" button on the bottom left and then click on the paperclip icon and select the files from your computer, or you can upload them to an outside site (like photobucket) and then paste the image link into your reply text.
