I Swapped one side of suspension: Driveable?? Sup fellas (and ladies), Well i'm installing the suspension in my sig minus the subs, and its taking forever but we finally got done with the first side of the front. Now that we felt out way through that the rest should be a breeze since we have all the tools now that we didn't know we needed etc. My question is, this is my daily driver and i have to work tonight, so, can i drive it about 30 miles with only one side of the front swapped? Will it hurt it with the rest of it being stock? I test drove it a couple miles down the road and back after we finished that side and it felt ok, but i just wanted to check and make sure. The othe 3 corners are still on stock, but the front drivers side got changed to lakewood 90/10 and eibach drag. Thanks!! -GM p.s. i'm glad this is pretty much a one time job. We kept encountering problems and didn't have all the tools, kept having to drive to town and back...argh..other side and rear should be EASY though.
It'll be fine. You should be able to drive it that way indefinately without hurting anything. The problems you would encounter would be drivabilty issues with pulling, uneven tire wear, unstable handling, etc. If it feels fine than go ahead. Only if it felt like something was terribly wrong would I worry.
I'm with the other guys on this with one exception - stangbear's tire wear comment. It's entirely possible if the alignment is far enough out to literally wear a tire out in 30 miles. So be careful......
Right. Just an assumption on my part though, I think if it was far enough out that it would Yes, very sweet intake plate.
Thanks guys - I made it myself. Quite proud - the pic's not very good though; amazing how much definition gets lost in the cropping/resizing process.
