Lets jump straight into it, I lowered my Nissan Rogue on Nissan Versa lowering springs it gave the car a 5.5 inch drop all around but the back of the car feels as if I were on cut springs it just bounces so I bought new shocks for the back, no change. When i took a look under the car the bumpstops where coming in contact with the control arm, if cut the bumpstops will stop the bounce? Other websites are saying the spring rate is too high what should i do?

HELP PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! sad.gif

chop them half way and see if it's better. lowering springs are shit thought. especially if they aren't properly paired with a shock. get coils and be happy biggrin.gif

ps. pics or ban!

another question, the versa is almost a thousand pounds lighter than the rogue, will the coilovers hold up under the extra weight?

yeah, but it might not ride so well. i'd suggest getting some custom valved. and a stiffer spring rate would be good too.
