Gotta pay to play man. Of course you didn't foresee this happening. I thought it was common knowledge poping 3 wheels and getting stuck places w/ coilovers so a lsd is needed.

Kamburrito · 11-20-2008, 08:13 PM

dude.. im getting in and out of driveways .. and my car is almost kissing the ground .. i mean .. my exhaust piping is scraping some deflectors on the road .. haha .. my advice is .. know your streets .. know your driveways .. if you know you wont make it up the driveway .. then dont go up .. that's your fault for having your car low .. i go through the same thing.. get a welded .. go at the driveway with a hard ass angle .. and gain some momentum ..

Bushido · 11-20-2008, 11:09 PM

in time, you will be able to determine if your car will scrape/get stuck before attempting to clear the incline/bump.

dynamicck · 11-20-2008, 11:21 PM

"THROW SOME D'S ON IT!"

+1 for the DONK's lol

ellisonrox · 11-21-2008, 04:05 AM

this used to happen to me quite a bit too, but after installing a rear strut bar it stopped happening completely

*shrug* go figure. it's cheap enough to try

Chernobyl · 11-21-2008, 10:00 AM

I 3-wheel every single time. It's the only way to get up the driveway.
Never a problem with a 2-way.

lilredstiffy · 11-21-2008, 10:29 AM

Actually the solution is more angle.
Drive as close to parallel as possible until one rear wheel is 'on' and cut in after that. You'll be fine.

Lol if you had more angle you would not 3 wheel.

Addicted2Kouki · 11-21-2008, 02:54 PM

just get bigger wheels!
you can still be low but the lowest part of your car wont be as low.

I was on 16s and i was scraping on everything.
i went back to my 18s when i bought tires
and now it only scrapes on bad dips.

og drifter · 11-21-2008, 03:03 PM

get a welded diff

Note how the lifted wheel is right next to the curb. If I had more angle, my front bumper would have been torn off and under my car.

Edit: Now that I think about it, I don't give a shit since I have a proper LSD anyway. Just contributing media to this thread.

hk240sx08 · 11-21-2008, 08:58 PM

so is a vlsd worth it? or should i wait a while for a real lsd???

iHeartTheTouge · 11-21-2008, 09:50 PM

REAL lsd or weld it. vlsd's suck. they overheat and end up as an open.

You need to angle it so that both right side wheels (or left if coming from the other direction) are on the curb before cutting harder right.

palmdale_mob · 11-21-2008, 11:59 PM

Why is this thread still open?
Take a mean ass angle or buy a 2 way, or even weld that bitch
Done..
Or maybe even instead of coming up on your left side swoop over to your right or vice versa
Thats all there is to it

please do it

This wouldn't help with 3-wheeling, but has anyone tried putting little wheels on the bottom of their frame rails? Haha.

Row · 12-06-2008, 01:51 AM

Same thing happens to me when I go up steep driveways. Time for an LSD or a welded diff for me. As for your issue hk240sx08 , I also recently installed Megan coil overs. Yes it gets annoying at times. Try taking the driveways at more of an angle and drive up faster on the steep driveways, That's the advice from my experience. I knew what I was getting myself into with a lowered 240

*handinpants* · 12-06-2008, 02:24 AM

buy a diff. haha, i have yet to see someone get stuck, can you post a picture please
