How to Adjust Fortune Auto Coilovers with Helper Springs
มุมมอง 7562 หลายเดือนก่อน
Do you have Fortune Auto coilovers with helper springs? This method of adjusting ride height via the spring perch is ONLY used on a helper spring setup after you set bump travel. To adjust Fortune Auto coilovers that do not have helper springs setups (our default) refer to our instructional manual linked below on how to adjust ride height via lower mount rather than the spring perch. fortune-au...

But with only 8 adjustments with the compression, on max will it reach the compression pressure of the 510 on max?
Is the strut to knuckle torque still 114 ft lbs for brz aluminum knuckles? U mentioned it has a different torque spec but only showed 114 ft lb on screen
what are the fitment your running on? curious.
Need these for my Tacoma!
Yall uploaded this video literally on timing with the order of my set for my evo. Lol
What helper springs would you recommend for 2015 WRx. 510/long stoke/ 7k front 8k rear.
Where the link 😊😊
Wish you would have used my FL5 for this video. Hahaha sabe me the trouble of going through the process. 😅
Great video, but random question.. my FA500’s started to squeak after 6 months of use.. it’s been getting louder recently over the tiniest of bumps, what can I do to fix this?
might be blown. mine were doing the same thing. just went back to stock
Lot of variables to consider, send Fortune an email so the team can help you diagnose and resolve the issue!
@@Zackparagon I actually emailed them and they said refrain from riding close to full stiff and they are sending me grease which they said would fix the issue 100% per the email convo. They said to apply under the bushings/bump stop and dust boot. Apparently it just needs to be lubed. Thanks for the response!
daddy Zack
Great video, and good info! Thanks for giving us the low down Zach.
Need this for my Scion TC 2nd Gen
Damn those are nice!
Wish there was a way to keep the top camber bolt from slipping 😞
This issue does occasionally occur on cars with higher-than-average strut angle, email Fortune and the team can help solve this issue🫡
Glad I'm not the only one with that issue! Literally came here to sanity check if I had done something wrong...
The adjustment method of the rear split coilover shock absorber in the video is wrong!
No, this is the correct way to do it.
@@CB-tx3ul The height of the rear spring has nothing to do with the adjustment of the barrel core. The adjustment of the rear barrel core is to change the stroke of the axis core (piston rod) retracting into the barrel core. Therefore, it is wrong to adjust the length of the barrel core by the compression degree of the spring. Because you don't know whether the position of the shaft core (piston rod) in the barrel core is correct.
@@brucelin2855 You actually do know the shock is in the correct spot, if the spring rate is matched properly to vehicle weight or intended use. This is no different from adjusting a coilover setup, where spring preload is set at full shock droop. In this case, setting the spring to the desired height is what sets ride height, then adjusting the outer section of the shock body (since the shock is at full droop regardless when the suspension is unloaded) allows you to set spring preload. The damper stroke is unaffected in this case, since stroke and overall length are unrelated. This is the correct way to do this. Set ride height, change damper ***body*** length to add preload. There is no other way unless you don't care about ride height and preload.
@@CB-tx3ul You got to the point. How do you know that the spring used in a certain car model is the most suitable for this car? Moreover, the spring configuration of a single model will be equipped with different spring and shock absorber damping forces due to different usage conditions, such as street use or track use? Therefore, even if the springs of the same model have different kilograms or lengths, the length of the shock absorber will be different. This is why the shock absorber needs to be made adjustable in length!
What weight of the car that could lift?
Hello, "Fortune Auto" I saw your channel and saw that in your channel have some problems, not many. For these problems your channel is not growing. If you can solve these problems, Your channel will grow like a storm. Do you want to know these problem? If you Want to know, I can only tell to you. Can I tell here or email?

Preload is simple and, at the same time, tricky. Essentially, Preload = More ride height (Less Droop, More Compression, total travel THE SAME) and Less Spring travel. Example: Sprung Corner Weight: 500lb Spring Rate: 250lb/in Spring Compression till Coilbind: 7in Motion Ratio: 1 Suspension Travel: 5in With 0in preload: 500/250 = 2in of Droop 5-2 = 3in of Compression 7-0 = 7in of Spring Compression Available With 1in of preload: 500/250-1 = 1in of Droop || Corner Raised 1in 5-1 = 4in of Compression 7-1 = 6in of Spring Compression Available No matter the preload a linear spring will be a linear spring. Too much preload: 3in 500/250-3 = 0in of Droop || Corner Raised 2in || 250lb Excess 5-0 = 5in of Compression 7-3 = 4in of Spring Compression available In this scenario, you will have a "bouncy" and hard ride since now you need to produce 0.5g just for the suspension to react. Not only that, you're losing an entire 1in of compression since your spring will bind before the full stroke a cause a jarring thud.
way to make it way more confusing
I’m sure this could have been explained more concisely.
Could we drive like 100km/hr while it is lifted?
So you are lifting the shock at full extension. Wouldnt this cause topping out of the shock over bumps? What if you compress the spring, wind the shock into the body and then thread the shock upwards using the force of the spring to maintain the control arm height. Wouldnt this give you desired preload and shock travel
Yes, this would also have the desired effect. The shock will always top out at full extension of the spring unless you have limiting straps, or unless the shock has some sort of internal top out spring or hydraulic top out stop. “Zone control” on some of Bilstein’s newer offroad suspension would be an example of this.
Would this get rid of the Loud squeaking noise?
That divorced setup looks god awful to look at 😂
good install video
Hello, "Fortune Auto" How are you?? Hope you are well, recently I have looked to your channel. And saw that in your channel have many many problems, for this reason channel videos not getting much engagements. Not growing, If you can solve these problems, channel will grow, You want to know these main main problems??? I can tell if you want to know. here or in email!! Where?????
Probably one of the best install videos I've ever seen.
pain in the ass to get full droop in your driveway with divorced spring and povo torsion beam suspension on a swift/polo etc
Going through this too on a Corsa C with a beam axle, absolute pain, i agree
May I ask why your coilovers come with a sticker that states not to mess with preload…. My mechanic stated the preload was incorrect after installing my coilovers without adjusting them. But each individual struts had this sticker to NOT TO MESS WITH PRELOAD… Please can anyone from FA please answer this?
tightening preload stiffens the spring, loosening it makes it softer to a point. preload is set up to match the stiffness of your shock, but you can absolutely crank that hoe to get ultra hotboi static stiffness.
Some applications require a minimum amount of preload to avoid unwanted spring noise, like that which can be heard in the video before preload is properly set. While adjusting preload from the factory setting should not cause issues, it can introduce some noise if not preloaded enough.
@@Zackparagon yes i'm sadly experiencing this as we speak, i'm fixing it soon
How did your mechanic ascertain the preload was incorrect? I hope they weren't trying to adjust height with the preload adjustment...
@@CB-tx3ul i ascertained that it was wrong by my ears when i kept hearing clunking in the rear caused by negative preload and uneven ride height.
Was wondering if anyone knew why my brand new fortune auto coilovers (5 months) make a single, loud, coiling Pop noise when going down/up the bump on my driveway.. (VB WRX) note: does not happen when turning rather on slight bumps after driving for a while. Some days you’ll hear minor squeaking, only 2-3 days out of the week. But the loud popping spring noise happens every time, again, after I drive for a mile or 2+. Any advice/suggestions would be MOST appreciated!
Prob blown. They sent me a blown front set and didn’t find out till after I did alignment. Same symptoms like yours. Waste of $$$$
0:32 I also have random FR-S tail lights on display
Sorry for the off topic, do you guys can make coilovers let's say for Mitsubishi Colt/Mirage from 1997, circuit racing, with dual adjustment?
Email Fortune or go on the website and fill out the spring selector form!
will these work on the vb?
Regular springs are a inch a half stock..
This video is in tune brotherrrr🤙🏿🔥
the fronts need 1/4 inch preload and the rears need an 1/8??
Let's gooooooo 🔥
What a legend 😍
To clarify, You do this as you are demonstrating it, with the suspension at full droop and not loaded?
yes - you adjust preload when car is full droop - usually you want to compress spring ~5% so there's some tension when going over bumps
Yes, correct!
Will this fit 11th gen civic sport hatchback?
I'm sure they make some for it. Look at their website.
🎉🎉 well deserved win for Eric, he has created a GLTC weapon this season. Watching him get those wins in person was an awesome experience for fans like me that have been following since before the hatch got totaled. Inspired me to pull the trigger and purchase some 510’s the day I got home from CMP also 😂.
so what was your recommended dampening settings?
so what is your preferred dampening settings?
2010 Toyota blade AZE154H. Coilovers available?
perfect for separated rear suspension, like on twist beam axel cars (older GTI, Mazda3)
Will the top hat cause strut bar fitment issue? Eg; custco strut tower bar rear
step 1) get a lift
You can’t jack up your car?
