Hey guys, Have not been on here for a while, so I forgot my old account info and had to make new. I also have tried to retrieve it with no luck! Anyhow, I know this probably has been covered extensively, but I am lowering my car 1.4 inches and was concerned about the axle/sway bar clearance. Will only that little drop cause a rubbing issue in anyone's experience?
Info on the car/suspension:
08 Jetta S
17" Sparco Pro Corsa wheels
Stagg shocks (had these in the past, they were great for the price. No issues)
Vogtland Sport Springs
Changing out all shock/strut mounts.
Guys, I know you love your coilovers! I love my springs... (Simple and no worrying about what height is best). I am looking for past experience from anyone who has lowered their mkv, and at what point did you need to change either the sway bar, or the sway bar links to prevent rubbing against the axle?
In the past, I've never had to worry about this. Previous cars, 83 GTI was dropped 2.5", 91 golf was dropped 2.5", 92 Jetta GL was dropped 2", Finally, my 02 Jetta was lowered 1.4". (To name a few) Never had to worry about this, but I have been reading and I'm finding mixed responses in other threads.
Any, and all help is welcomed and appreciated!!!!!!!
