    How about some new springs?

    I got an awesome deal on some eibach linear springs today, 100 for all four. 550lb and 500lb spring rates. Installing rears tonight! I am running them on the Rokkor coil over hardware.

    Everything worked out great. I am running eibach 7 inch springs 550lb in the rear, and with the Rokkor coilover sleeve and ground control top hats, the tire sits perfectly in the wheel well now. I couldn't be happier!!

    Rears done, Fronts tomorrow. Stay tuned.

    Put the left front on, the spring was a little wider than the mount so I went to ace and grabbed a rubber o ring with a nylon washer that was wide enough to go around the mounting points to get rid of all the slop, cost bout 15 bucks for all the parts. The coilover is adjusted all the way down on the front and rear and sits almost flush with the wheel well. Looks identical to the rear. Too much good stuff. Can't wait to throw the last one on tonight and take pictures!
