I recently changed my front struts and springs but am still bottoming out on the driver's side. Is there any way that I can raise the front end? Thanks! '97 850 T-5

 

Something's not right if you're bottoming out on the driver's side.

 

You need to check if the nut at the top of the shock is tightened fully. I had a similar problem on the passenger-side when I replaced the struts and had to re-do the job -- a lot quicker the 2nd time (maybe 45 minutes to 1 hour tops).

 

are you bottoming out or just clunking? Did you replace the spring seats and strut mounts?

 

You definitely need to go over your work and see if you missed something. You should not be bottoming out at all. It is not like your car is lowered or anything.

 

What springs did you replace? Brand?
