Spacers for the front springs: why are they needed and how to choose
Many motorists are faced with the question of whether spacers are needed for the front springs to their car. The attitude towards this is quite ambiguous, because their installation is not just a cosmetic repair. Spacers affect the geometry of the suspension, and this is reflected in handling, comfort and safety. Let's figure out when and why they are installed.
What are spacers and why are they needed?
Spaces are additional metal elements that are installed between the front springs and the body of the car. Their task is to increase the height of the front of the machine. This, in turn, can lead to improvement of controllability, an increase in clearance, as well as an aesthetic change in appearance. However, do not forget that spacers can affect the behavior of the car on the road.
Selecting spacers: what to pay attention to?
Before you buy spacers, you should understand their purpose. Not all spacers are the same. If you just want to raise the car, then spacers with appropriate height will suit you. But if you plan to install more powerful springs and shock absorbers, then the spacers should be selected taking into account these factors. The material of the spacers, their geometry and thickness play an important role. Some motorists choose spacers made of more durable metal to ensure durability. Make sure that you select spacers corresponding to the type and models of your car to avoid negative consequences for suspension.
Possible consequences of installing spacers
Installation of spacers can have both positive and negative consequences. An increase in road clearance is, of course, a plus, but it can affect handling. If the choice of spacers was made incorrectly, then the car can become less stable on the road. In addition, driving comfort may decrease and a faster wear of some suspension details occur. It is very important to take into account all possible consequences, consult with experienced specialists and, if necessary, carry out the adjustment of the suspension after installation. The correct choice of spacers and competent installation is the key to comfortable and safe driving.
