I am about to take the GCs out but here is the problem.

I bought the car with them on, I don't know how and what was included in the original strut/spring assembly.


I know that there are some parts that are NOT used with the Ground Controls. What are these parts?

I know the dustboots/bumpstops are not used because they do not fit, since the spring is so small.

What else?

I need to purchase these parts as I'm going back to regular springs.. just wanted to know what I need.



thanks

you can do that but I have a set of maxspeeds that i bought to install. Just had no chance. I'm keeping my modified AGXs if they are not shot yet I don't need stock parts or other springs/struts. I just need to know what I'm missing.

From what I know all you need are the dustboot/bumpstop and the isolation sleeves.

someone was telling me something about mounts?

GCs have their own, really small ones.. But I need bigger top mounts for regular springs?

the ground controls fit on your stock upper strut mount etc etc. I used the stock bump stop and i cut it down to fit inside the spring. My ride had gotten a little worse recently after a year or so on them. SOOO i cut the bumpstops even shorter so i could have mroe spring travel and now it rides better.
