I wish I could facepalm in the thread title.

Anyways, I installed my coilovers backwards. Short on the front, long on the back. Now it looks like some sort of dragster Miata gone wrong.

Just thought I'd share my knowledge and warn people:
SHORT ON BACK, LONG ON FRONT.

That is all.

 

 

pictures please

 

dude really? that's lame.... smooth move shaggy..... lolol pics or it didn't happen? lol

 

TITTYfuckingWOP!

 

For all you ******'s viewing pleasures

Sorry 'bout the shitty quality, my real camera stopped charging so I have to use my cell

Front is cranked all the way up, back is all the way down.

 

BAHAHHAHAHAHHA this should be added to the EPIC FAIL THREADS list

 

LOL. Sorry man, but at least you caught it.

 

hahahaha thats great

 

OM-*******-G that is hilarious lmao

 

Kinda easy to spot don't ya think??

Though I'll bet an m.netter would be calling the manufacturer asking for instructions

 

Lol everyone laughing at me is well earned, at least I caught it before I finished up the other side

Come on, we've all done really really really really stupid things

 

^seriously

 

Fixed that for ya.

and LOL.

 

Thread title

 

Come on people, don't I look dumb enough having installed the coilovers backwards, can't we change the title back

 

SHORT ON BACK, LONG ON FRONT. This is what you said. But you did it Short on front, Long on back...like this...

 

Did you not look at how they came off? Or did you not run into issues? I can't imagine getting the longer shock body on the rear without some serious cussing and big tools to pry with.

 

^ picturing that! The good news is that you found out what you did wrong before going any farther!

 

Thats gangster transportation right there.
