I just installed kybGr2 shocks and struts and bomz lowering springs. 2 things, Number 1, the shocks are sooooooooo stiff i feel every bump and crack on the road.. is there anyway i can adjust the stiffness of the shocks?? and the other thing is the driver side shocks makes creaking noise, sounds kinda like an old house, when u step on the woodplanks, it goes "ergereegerere" or something like that. That noise comes everytime i move the car... front, back, up or even down... (which means all times.) what is the PROBLEM?? could it be that the shocks are too tight?? and if i could make it less stiff.. it would go away?? please help.. THANKS IN ADVANCE!!:

 

Get some REAL spring like H&R or Progress.

 

Oh man. Where to begin...

1. The sooner you get rid of those springs, the better. Trusting BOMZ to hold your car up is like jumping into a lake with bricks tied to your feet and trusting them to keep you from sinking.

2. The shocks are not adjustable.

3. The shocks are not the reason your ride is stiff. The springs are.

4. The shocks are probably not the cause of your noise either. If it's a creaking sound, it's most likely pieces of sheet metal rubbing against each other. Stiffer springs will make that happen. Try to pinpoint it and put some grease on the spot where it's coming from.

5. Get rid of those springs as soon as possible.

 

What they said.

bomz = junk.

 

I hope you don't mean their "coilover" setup off ebay



TOTAL JUNK!!!

Word of future reference knowledge:

WHenever a brand ends in a "Z" or is misspelled to sound "cool"....DON'T BUY!

 

Oh wow. Me too.

If it's that kit, the OP is REALLY screwed...

 

sorry man you got screwed on that one

 

LOL you guys are too funny!!! but thanks.. ill start saving up.. but MAN the bottom of my front bumper is just about done........

 

Yeah, I would put stock springs back on for now.

 

So did you get the set in the pic above?


EDIT: Kevlo's comment.

 

dude just put ur oem springs back on

 

Bomz are crap.........

 

cant.. threw away my stock springs.. about to purchase a whole new set .. anyone got springs for sale?? and front shocks??

 

Wow.... self-owned.

 

well.. just bought some front shocks and some tien springs off ebay.. hopefully its all good after i put em in

 

Which Tein springs?

And why did you buy new front struts? It doesn't sound like there was anything wrong with your GR-2s....

 

edited to harrass Irish.....

 

i'll have my stock suspension after i install my progress/illuminas this saturday. PM me. Kevlo, took your advice and went with progress.
