LG Motorsports LG C5 GT2 Coil Overs - Manual (Page 2)

Instructions:
Tips:
1. Place the car on level ground and place a piece of tap at the top of each fender,
measure to this and place a mark (doesn’t matter what it is), and record this. This
will give you a point of reference when installing the coil overs as to ride height.
2. If you have access to a scale pad, you should be shooting for 50% cross weight,
LF to RR on the car.
3. Coil overs are shipped, pre-set to a close setup for your car, so there should not be
much to adjust before hitting the track.
Removal:
Raise the car off the ground and support via lift, or jack stands so that the car is
16-24” off of the ground. Start by removing all four wheels and tires and set them to the
side.
On C5 cars you will have to move the washer tank and coolant tank. They do not
have to be disconnected but they will have to be removed from their mounts to access the
top shock mounts. C6 cars will only have to move the coolant tank on the driver side
(see figures 1 and 2).
Figures 1 and 2 (removal of fluid tanks on C5 Corvette):
Once the tanks have been moved from their mounts, you can now access the shock top
mounts on the factory shocks. This can be done with a special Snap-On socket, or you
can loosen the nut with a ratchet, if the shock piston starts to turn you will have to hold
the shock with a wrench, while loosening the nut with another.
At this point it is time to move into the wheel well of the car. Care should be
taken to support any and all suspension components at this time as you will be
dealing with the factory leave spring and it is under pressure.
