Momma I made it 🙌🏾 in all seriousness, I’m happy you’re on our suspension finally and the results speak for themselves!
-
Good work on explaining the complexities of proper suspension setup. I’d say 80% of slammed car owners don’t understand this and another 10% of owners don’t do this.
-
Finally a channel that shows the correct way to set up coilovers 👏
-
Thanks for being that car channel that best describes my interests within the car community. You guys are phenomenal. It’s been a trip, I’ve been watching since the escort and the progress speaks for itself…
-
This channel has come a long way from working on your turbo escort. Great to see the progress.
-
I absolutely love it when you guys do the work on your vehicles yourself! Loved the video!
-
Keep these type of track technical video coming 👍 ❤️
-
Good job going through this all! Definitely one of the clearest videos for teaching how to setup 2 piece coilovers with goodninfor to take to one piece coilovers. Will be sharing as a demonstration of how to setup suspension.
-
One of the very few youtube channels that goes over the correct way to setup coilovers! Great video as always!
-
I love this civic. Excited to see where it goes once you decide to go higher class again!
-
Great resources. Huge fan of what you guys do. Much love!
-
Fortune auto is great, and Devin is a huge help for dialing in my setup!
-
This couldn’t have came at at better time! I just literally installed 2 way adjustable Coilovers on my c5 vette & I was wondering how to properly setup them up. Awesome job explaining everything.
-
Think I need to watch this again because it’s so good and redo my simple 1 way coilovers. Amazing video
-
great explanation on everything! broke it down nicely! really enjoyed this one
-
Finally someone made this video. So many people dont know and dont really show how to set it up out of the box.
-
Thank you for this. Interesting. Hope this gets a follow-up on the track with some explanation about what you notice and how you adjust.
-
Great episode! Been waiting for this one for a while.
-
Can’t wait to see the changes with the new suspension
-
Without a doubt, this is the best coilover setup video in the history of YouTube. I'll see you in Club TR next year! 🍺
