@MazdaGLD do you remember how much you trimmed your rear cx-5 bumpstop for the b6 + prokit and how did it work? I’m considering trimming 2 rings off the rear bumpstop for the same setup, trying to find a shorter progressive bump stop, or bailing on the B6 (sitting in my garage) and going with a...

@teddymac saw your post about the longer B6 rear shocks for cx-5 and curious if you had issues with cutting so much off the progressive bump stop off with corksport springs. We have bad roads in PNW and worried about taking a corner at the limit and hitting a bump that unsettles the car when...

End links arrive today. Can I zero the preload for one axle on ramps and the other on the ground or does the car need to be level on all 4 corners when zeroing out the preload?

re: BC Racing coilovers @AL Cx5 So BC racing S/N 6248248 for 1.5" front and 2" rear drop?

re: Ceika coilovers @Grey5ive any update on this from Ceika?

re: spring rates If these OE spring rates are correct - ratio: 0.71 (F/R) 4k front / 6k rear: - ratio: 0.67 (F/R) From the Corksport website - 2.1 inch front & rear drop - Corksport spring rates were increased 17% & 32% over OE, respectively. - front: 3.4k - rear: 5.4k - ratio: 0.63 (F/R)...

@N7turbo @AL Cx5 agree and really appreciate all the research, experimentation, and willingness to share the knowledge because otherwise everyone would be on their own trying to figure this stuff out. Feels like I’m one step closer to having my GT-style build complete which like @AL Cx5...

SuperPro Sway Bar End Links by Size SuperPro gets good reviews, ordered these: SuperPro TRC10265 M10 320-365mm SuperPro TRC1045A M10 125-145mm

@Dlind what spec of Ceika 1Ms did you get and any long term update on how they're doing?

Looks like you can order these ^^ direct from Tein: Front: M10-290 290-350mm - up to 2" drop Front: M10-335 335-395mm - 2-3" drop Rear: M10-120 120-140mm - up to 2" drop Rear: M10-100 100-120mm - 2-3" drop Wish the reviews on these Godspeed links weren't so bad Front...

The MaXpeedingrods are Adjustable Adapter Lengths: 135-175mm, 205-245mm, 255-295mm So @N7turbo are you saying for a 2" Corksport drop: front links: want 342mm so MaXpeedingrods 255-295mm is 47mm too short? rear links: want 125mm so MaXpeedingrods 135-175mm is 10mm too long? If my drop is 1"...

Agree on the front camber bolts. Took them with me for original alignment. Better to have them on hand and can easily return them after. re: Upper control arms, my wheels are 45mm and looking to have them stick out a tiny bit more. Sounds like the lower control arms bring the bottom of the...

Dug through the various threads and really appreciate the deep dives from @AL Cx5 @CX_MCHNE @N7turbo and @sm1ke which really helped narrow things down for my 2019 CX-5 2.5T suspension refresh. Phase 1: - Swaybars: Hardrace 7028 & 7691 front install (2) - rear install - looks the same as Megan...
