how much do i cut the dustboots on top to avoid banging??

thanks.

 

Did your springs not come with a sheet that instructs you on how much you should cut them?

I believe half and inch is how much, but I'm not sure.

 

Cut at least one ring off.

Eibach + GR2 = Very harsh ride.

Be ready for it, and make sure you get the alignment reset when your done.

 

yea luckilly im aware of the ride..friend of mine has the same setup and he took me for a spin in it before i made my decision..ill check the instructions..thanks guys

 

Definately on the alignment with the springs.

 

don't do it!

 

full compress the sturt....measure the remaining shaft... them measure the bumpstop then subtract..thats how much u need to cut

 

The standard rule is 1/2"

 

hmm i need new suspension what do youi mean by harsh im looking for a very stiff ride waht do yall recommend i have a 95 se

 

some use the word harsh in place of stiff. If someone cant deal with a ride thats too stiff they call it harsh.

Harsh would have you bouncing all over the place, or the car feeling like its going to fall apart when you go over bumps.

 

people say the gr2s are too stiff... but mine were never stiff enough... it bottoms out too easilly for me. I hate gritting my teeth every time I come to a large bump hoping it's not gonna hurt. I'm not sure if it was as bad when i got them, but it was never great and I have only had them for less than a year... I wish i had gotten illuminas. Just my words on it... do what you want.

 

.... bottom out..? no .... way... ur must be bad... they just dont provide movement... specially with lowering springs.. if u live in an area like Houston TX... while i was visiting my cousins i noticed the roads were even.. so if no bumps and holes in ur area.. then its alrite bearable.. but in NYC... forget it... YOU SCREWEED.... im getting illuminas with the tax refund...

 

ok so what do yall recommend i want something that grips like a mother but as you say isnt too harsh and i dont want something that will rip all my money away from me

 

are you suppose to cut the bumpstop? i didnt and mine rides fine.

 

You might want to switch to H & R's too. Eibachs are very very stiff.
