CV Joint Boot advice needed
I currently have Apex Gen 2 coilovers fitted on my car and when I fitted the 18 inch Advans I lowered the car a bit further.
The first time I went too low and there was contact between the bottom of the coilover and the CV joint boot, so both were replaced and the car was raised up.
There is currently the following gap between the coilover and the cv joint boot:
But sadly, the drivers side has went again
Is there anything obvious in the pics above on what is causing the issue?
I would have thought the above gap would have been sufficient.
Anyone got any advice on what can be done to fix the problem without raising the car as I'm really happy with the way it sits at the moment:
Maybe I need to stop spending so much time on the American Subaru forums as all there cars seem to be slammed and a lot are much lower than mine!
Any advice or help is much appreciated
