Steeda Fixed Valved Pro-Action Shocks & Struts (2015-2019)

Cool. I was concerned about the higher front rate on the swift.

Sorry for the dumb question but any other hardware that I need to replace springs/shocks/struts? Car only has about 1000 miles on it? Can I pretty much reuse everything?

P.S. I know there's some videos out there but I'm currently in China and if it's not blocked/ it'll take hours to load.

You should be just fine re-using the isolators and strut mount bearing assemblies.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to use new strut mounting bolts and nuts, the ones that connect the strut to the knuckle, not required, though.

Thanks. I saw that CJPP has a new bolt kit. I'll go ahead and order it since it's cheap insurance.

Or save a buck and buy them individually from Levittown Ford. Should be cheaper.

anyone else unhappy?

i still feel the rear is still unsettled and is harsh/bouncy and blown out. it could just be the way this car rides. running swift springs.

Which bump stops are you running in the rear?

Steeda Tech

Running the Pro-Actions with Steeda bump stops on the short setup with Steeda Linear Sport springs. Over a year. Feels like I have plenty of travel and bumps are one and done. Pulling .92 g's on a windy road felt amazing...no over/understeer. Just planted. I do have my subframe locked down with BMR Delrin bushings if it makes any difference. I'd look at your bump stops as a LOT of what folks have complained about seems to get better with a bump stop trim or, better yet, the Steeda version.

At curb do you know the distance before contact? How much was trimmed?
Any other rear suspension mods?

The Steeda rear bumpstop short stack should improve your ride quality.
The first grove is not quite enough.
