vmaxx coilovers rear adjusters?

[batesey]

I've just bought some coilovers from lowlife, but they didnt come with rear adjusters? im pretty sure the vmaxx kit has them? is it safe to run them without them? im guessing it would just be really low as he says he ran them like that and thats all that came with his kit
Any help would be appriciated
Thanks

theres no small cup with a thread on it ? is there nothing at al for the rear, just the springs ?

yeah i thought that was the kit i was getting, but it doesnt have the blue adjuster? will it be ok without it?

Do you not have any of the blue bit at all? You need something for the spring to sit on.

the rubber cup what comes as standard, he put that in the box and said thats all he had?

 

[clancy]

if it has a rubber cup that will allow the spring to sit tight at the bottom then that will be ok, but not adjustable obviously. got a link for the website you got it from ? if he advertised it as rear adjustable then he has to send it to you. and im pretty sure all there kits come with rear adjustable :/

he just sold it as vmaxx kit , i asked him about it and he said thats how northwest performance fitted the kit when they put it on and that it didnt come with rear adjusters, im guessing it wil be ok, i just dont want to go around a roundabout and it fly out lol

You should be fine running without the rear adjuster, on the rubber cup
I know quite a few people on here do that, because they wanted lower than they could go on the adjuster.

But they would definitely have come with rear adjusters as new. They are blue as said.

The kit is a VMaxx kit.

I bought the kit second hand. I have already stated in a PM that you have all that I had when the kit was on my car...

ok thanks for the replies, i may look out for some apex rear springs to use with the shortened shocks

I bought my 182 with v maxx on and no rear adjusters. Expect your rear tyres to rub the paint off your arches.

Also, the rear adjusters are silly expensive. £160 for the pair they are.

It makes no sense to remove the rear adjusters on v maxx, you gain 4mm if that.

I am looking forward to removing mine off the car and binning them.

The springs are fine to run on those shocks.

I ran it like that for around 12 months.
