#238, "Pro Kit Results"


          

Well after hours of cussing and some skin loss ive finally got them on. Took about 6 hours following the spring install web page and I'm really impressed with the my results.

Tokico Non-adjustable shocks and Eibach Pro Kit Springs-

Before
Front hieght- 6.75
Rear hieght- 11.5
Sides- 6.25
Wheel well gap- 3.25

After
Front hieght- 5.25 (-1.50)
Rear hieght- 10.5 (-1.0)
Sides- 5.25 (-1.0)
Wheel well gap- 2.0 (-1.25)

The installation had its moments but with alot of anger and a breaker bar anything is possible. The rear only took about 45 mins but the front is what kicked my booty. The car feels great now in the corners and the ride is a little stiffer but still nice...its pulling a little to the left but im hoping thatll be corrected when i get it aligned tomorrow. Sorry no pics!

Take care
Tony

Cool deal man....I installed the same setup on my car. I used an impact wrench so it took me 3 hours total. And yeah, I'd drive it a couple days to let the springs settle and then get an allignment. Later.....

Like the others said it's pulling mostly because it's misaligned
