Hmmmm. Pedders WAS next up on my mod list. Now with all these issues, it looks like I'll be looking at something else. Anybody want to give me their opinions?(yes I know it's been talked about before)

 

I still think its a bad batch even if several bad batches

 

What makes you like the BC units? Spring rate is way off, it's basically Megan's with damp/rebound settings

 

the xa coilovers ride like a dream , this is the way too go :

 

I've got quite a few friends with them and they all love them.

The owner of stancenation had them on his charger and they were amazing in that car.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^This^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

Does anyone have pictures of their spring issues could upload? I'm curious if we all have same problem? I can't from iPad to site

 

I'll post some soon. Not real good ones, as struts are still on car, but good enough to get a good idea of the problem.
Deb and Rob, Pedders USA, are on the Hot Rod Power Tour this week, so you won't be hearing from them[if you have a ticket working] until at least next week.
I think the solution we are going to finally get at best, is a new set of springs, and not coilovers. If badflt indeed got a set of coilovers from Pedders, it was a one time deal, and sure won't be standard procedure. I'm sure Pedders tought it was a one time deal, and are now re-thinking the deal.

Front strut coil bind, strut extended.

Front strut coil bind, strut extended.

Hard to see but, with vehicle on ground, suspension in static position, upper two coils are touching, and next one is only about 1/8" from touching, at rest.
R/H rear springs coils [top two] are almost touching 1/8" at rest, and L/H rear springs coils are almost as bad.
Front spring coils, both L/R are binding so bad, they are actually rubbing past each other. Hope this gives some insight as to my problem.
Coil brinding means, touching or rubbing past each other, either at rest, or over suspension compression bumps, not just making noise. "Moon"

 

Wow Moon, shouldn't look like that.

looks like it is flexing instead of compression. Any wear damage to shocks/struts?
