according to KSport they should share the same pillowball mounts. they looked identicle when I had them both here.

 

Ahh, enough comparisons. Lets see these things installed!!

 

That's *****y news. I don't know what to do now..

 

just stay tuned, i have a fix

 

Ahhh!!!!!! whats the FIX!!!! I need to know my D2's are driving me nuts!!! Ive taken these things off the car so many times now its not funny. I narrowed it down to the pillow ball mounts too, I was just going to grease them up, but if you have a better fix please do tell. Thanks Larrio If I wasnt to busy with school Id be all over thise trying to find a fix too.

 

i'll be testing them out on my car first. I'll confirm details later, don't want stray too far from the subject of the thread

 

patiently waiting on larrio's info, very intent on purchasing soon

 

which ones lighter? and also how about some weights

 

the total weight on the box (includes shipping material) on the D2's says 45lbs

 

when you install these are they R and L specific? or will they work on either side?

i am going to attempt an install by my lonesome and i need all the advice i can get.

 

The fronts are side-specific, but aren't marked. When I had mine installed I was told that they only go on one side properly because the strut tower hole pattern is not symetrical, and the "D2" logo on the bottom of the camber plate should face out.

 

Any updates Larrio!?!? I cant wait to hear about this fix. Im so tempted to take these things off if the sound doesnt go away.

 

Turn up the dampening, and the sound will most likely go away or get a lot quieter. Increase it until it starts getting too stiff, and go back 1/2 a turn.

 

i just put in the D2's yesterday, i will have pics soon.

 

I did what stillenmax2k said and it worked. Also make sure that there isn't any preload on the springs, so if the car is jacked up you have a little bit of room to wiggle the spring up and down between the perches

 

pics of the D2's.

quick favor, can some one with an 00-01 SE with stock suspension measure the distance between the ground and the bottom of the wheel well?

 

The perfect ride height. Wish I had the money for coilovers.

 

if i go any lower i cannot get into my driveway... i dont want to go any lower anyway, to many obsticles in the road.

 

Not disagreeing with you. As I said, thats the perfect ride height IMO. I would set my car to that same height if I had coilovers.

 

Car looks nice.
Would that ride height would be compared to the Illuminas and Tein H?
What are the measurments from wheel well to floor?

 

How is the ride on coilovers vs. a similar ride height on struts and springs??

 

i am not dissareeing with tyou either, i love the height, just throwin out there that i cant go any lower if i wanted to.

 

i dont know about illuminas, i went from stock SE suspension to the coilovers... the bottom of the wheel well to the ground is 25.5 inches all around.
