everything will be installed on tuesday, and pictures of drop will be posted when done..

SIDE NOTE: anyone with this setup happy with their choice?

Not bad. I would've went with lower springs than Eibach, but that's just me.

roads here aren't that great or i would have went lower... plus i couldn't pass up the deal i got em for.. 120 bucks brand new.. buddy just wanted to get rid of em :)

that's cool. post some pictures after they settle.

sure thing

Nice. Quality parts, make sure you get a good install job. Don't forget to use new strut bearings and replace the strut boots (if needed), spring isolators and check the strut mounts. The last thing you want is to put on a nice new suspension setup and have some old parts end up causing problems that are hard to diagnose or that require a full disassembly to replace.

Good stuff man. I remember when my springs and illuminas look all nice and shiney like those :sadpace:

I have the exact setup and love it, I set the struts @ 2F and 2R with my 18" wheels on 245/40's nice ride, great handling.

:jealous:

thats *exactly* what i need. my CV boots are blown and i want that suspension setup!

pics will be posted wednesday morning
