Just throw it all out get a mechanical fix kit and there u go
I can change the hight anytime. But there is no reason for it. The bigger spoiler creats enough downforce to match up with my aero lip.

I have just completed fitting Daves 4" Rams the fitment is relatively easy only things I didnt like were the crappy non heat shrinkable wire terminals and the dust boots which I finally ended up cutting off as there was no way in hell the rams were going to wiith my 3" Y Pipe.

May do an installl thread wiith pics but that will be after I test high speed as Id hate to say how great they are just to find they fall off over 300kph.

Cheers
Tim

the eRam kit is pretty sweet looking.

as for a quick patch/fix, i'm going to do the stop-leak flush/fill and see how that does.

stop-leak fix thread: https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...nt-method.html

it's worth a shot at least...

so i did this today after my spoiler started going up uneven - lower on the driver's side.

took a while b/c i had a bolt that was spinning with the little insert, had to grind that off, but it was pretty straight forward and if i didn't have to do that it would have taken about an hour or 2 with a beer in the middle...it's definitely worth a shot IMO.

works like a champ so far!

This is why I invented the electric ram kit. I doubt it will stay sealed over the long haul.

Yep. I Re-bled my system, filled with stop leak fluid and changed the crush washers. Worked great!!!! ......for like 5 weeks.:-/. Starting to go up unevenly again. So internal leak somewhere.

in 8 years i've successfully re-bled my rams on 2 cars and 3 separate occasions and never spent more than the cost of some stop leak/pentosin and beer and chicken for the help

still working as they should.
