If you don't have the spanner nut adjusted up to the top, or close to it, I'd tell you to keep turning it up, it won't hinder anything at all.

With a BB in the car, heavier rated springs should've been swapped into the order, to compensate for the added weight. If you can look at the side of the spring, you'll see a part number etched into the coil ("59080700" for example), email me what number you find and I'll be happy to work with you!

*edit - are you running the Ridetech coilovers/Strongarms? I just saw where you said that it had the Global West springs, which we don't build an arm for... I just want to make sure I'm understanding what components you have on the car.

Thanks,

Josh

Josh, running stock control arms. The plan for this car was to improve street manners.
The Tru Turn has certainly done that. Just need to sort out ride height.

We have purchased a set of Moog 6041 springs here locally, should have on Monday and hope to install Tuesday.
