Tokico and Skunk2

[VTBigYellow]

Hey, i just put the tokico illumina and skunk2 coilover set together and have a question for anyone that might be able to help. the rear coilover sleeve does not seem to go all the way down to the spring perch of the shock. how am i supposed to get this to go on? thanks for the help

VTBigYellow-

How is the ride quality? Is it stiff and rough (like bottoming out frequently) or is it tolerable? Cause I have skunk2 and Kyb Agx's and there too stiff for me. I bottom out on the smallest bumps. So I was wondering how yours was with the tokico illuminas. Let me know.

hey~
the ride is actually really rough for me too. even with the shocks set to the softest setting its really rough

hello
I have the same set up on my spyder but I cut off the spring mounts right below the weld so the coil sleaves sat all the way down on the welds like they would on stock shocks and it woked great and rides prefect

Do you ever bottom out often or occasionally? Is it too stiff etc or enough to tolerate? Also, did you remove both the front and rear perches or just the front?

I took off the front and back.
I dont bottom out at all in the sup.
I do bottom out on the body it likes to skrap everything but that is becouce I got the back all the way down 3 1/4 and the front 2 3/4 so it is flat and just enuff to get ove thing but still able to push a pop can around
I dont have any bounce in it. it is stiff but hands geat I can take a on ramp at 65 with out a problem
