rear AGX setup

[wed3k]

alright guys, im planning on re-lowering my car since im stuck with the cb7.

i have agx's on stock springs however the passenger side front strut is kinda messed up and cannot be adjusted due to a shitty mechanic (these werent mine but a friend's stock suspension)

im planning on buying all four new aftermarket shocks however they are not adjustable. should i keep the rears, AGX's, on and just adjust the rear?

i think the front should be fine with no adjusting but i dont want the rear end to swing out if the rear is too stiff (happened to me during a mountain run).

Why not? Setting the agx's to 2 would be similiar to stock settings. 1 being 10% less than stock IIRC.

Being stuck with a CB7 is a good thing if you ask me.

oh man, im actually glad i didnt sell it.

the engine runs so smooth.

anyways the reason why i wouldnt want the agx's is because they dont drop as much. however, it doesnt matter all that much for the rear...i really just like the front to be slammed.

Having the front lower than the rear should help prevent the oversteer you were refering to also. I like this idea for my wagon, since it's heavier in the rear anyway.

really? i never really thought of that... (the oversteer)

Your'e correct about stiffer rear suspension adding to oversteer, backend slides first, raising the rear should make the front end "push" through the corner more. I'm just not sure how much you'd have to raise it. Our cars are designed to understeer so maybe you have tire issues that caused the condition you described on that mountain run.
