Andy's Auto Sport shows you the general steps involved in installing a set of coilovers in a typical vehicle, in this case our project 1995 Acura Integra. Although it may seem like a difficult task at first glance, installing coilovers is a relatively simply process that usually only takes no more than a couple of hours. Andy's Auto Sport has what you need to get the looks and power your vehicle deserves.

Kudos to AndysAutoSportTV for actually responding to peoples questions. When I have money for it I'm going to do a lot of these mods on my Lancer.
We always suggest an alignment after lowering or lifting a vehicle. Some are worse than others, but they're always at least a little bit off after any suspension changes. Thanks for watching!
The parts above the tires on that gen Accord are the spindles/uprights and the upper control arm. They move up and down with the wheel during suspension travel, so no need to move them. Thanks for watching!
What we typically refer to as a strut is an assembly consisting of a strut casing and shock absorber. Thanks for watching!
This is going to help me next week when I install my suspension in my Integra
Most common coilover setups are designed for a lower ride height, unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer.
We have one in the works. Please subscribe so that you'll be notified of all future video releases. Thanks!
If they rub during suspension travel or turning, then yes. Thanks for watching!
seems easy, thanks for the video!
You could likely fit slightly larger tires on it, which would give you the extra half inch you want. There aren't really any lift options unless you fabricated your own strut spacers.
Awsome video
Tried changing coilovers on my integra.. definitely was not THIS simple..
Thanks so much for this vid.
Thanks, i'll have to save this for use later;)
have you guys done a video on how to install adjustable coilovers?
There is, but without knowing what type of vehicle it is, we can't be very specific.
i love Mechanix Gloves :) you guys should do a glove review for track gloves and mechanical gloves. excellent seat videos, by the way. im bookmarking them for later ;) excellent choice in rims and tires, too.
Do you have any coilovers that directly bolt up to a Nissan 300zx (Z31)?
What size bolt was used for the bottom bolts
Really helpful. Ordered coilovers for my VW Golf mk3 and wanted to see how difficult it would be to install them. If its anything like this car it should not be such a problem. THANKS :D

2003 Mitsubishi Outlander LS AWD. Stock clearance height is 8.3". Anyway to increase it by half inch at least? I've ask the tire/rim shop people and they said my vehicle only has 1 tire and rim size available after looking it up in their book.
oh okay, thanks for the advice. I will measure the distance between the tire tread and the wheel arch to make sure.
I know shock absorber and damper are the same thing, what about strut? Is strut a shock absorber/damper?
So you don't need a camber kit with coilovers ?
how big are the apache rims
So i have a question. I have a 1989 honda accord i want to slam but, about the tires is a weird bracket. can i move this bracket or what?
How long did that take in total ? i plan on doing a similar work on my car , so i wanted to know how long it would take
I'm wanting to increase the ground clearance on my vehicle, is it possible to increase it by getting the coilovers? Btw, it's not a sedan it's a unibody crossovers SUV
If your truck physically has the room for them, the tire size should be your choice. a 225/65R16 would probably fit just fine as long as there is nothing in the way.
oh ok. Is there a way to increase the ground clearance of a vehicle by changing to a longer strut?
You should do a project on a Mazda 6 3.0L
hey, i want to slam my car, you know wheel arches over the tyre a bit, do i need to remove my wheel wells to do so?
Tein SS coilover?! shit... so expensive, but I think it's worth the money. I'm saving right now D:
yeah but slightly larger tire weren't an option for me since they said... my vehicle is only available for P225/60R16
Would have been much easier if you had unbolted the stabilizer link.
No alignment?
I would get an alignment just in case
WALTER WHITE? ITS THAT YOU?
