FS: Rear Ground Control Weight Jacks w/170lb or 220lb Eibach springs

I only have a set for the rears, but weight jacks that will fit the front can be picked up from several places.

Since I'm not gonna use these as I had intended to and I already have a full set on my car, I'm just gonna sell this extra set of rears to fund other mods. Will include 170lb springs or 220lb springs, your choice. The springs have a metal tag banded to them, so you will know the weight of them.

Our front springs are are standard 5.25" (iirc the right diameter) straight springs, which are commonly used on the circle track cars. I've seen it discussed here on TGO before about where to get fronts cheaper than through Ground Control. Or just buy the fronts from Ground Control.

Usually yes.....But if you tell them that you are only needing to replace the fronts after an accident & show them that you have the rears? They will sell just the fronts. that is what they were going to do for me after I provided a pic showing that I already had their rear set. I was gonna do that but lucked upon a used complete set for the price of just fronts, so I got the complete set instead.

But there are other, cheaper places to get front weight jacks anyways. Not like your restricted to only getting some from GC.

I know it doesn't help with your lb rate issue. Just wanted to point out that fronts can be gotten.

Re: FS: Ground Control Weight Jacks w/Eibach springs

I do have a set of 220lb springs that I can include instead of the 170s, for the same price.


So....170s or 220s, your choice, plus the weight jacks. Same price.

Re: FS: Rear Ground Control Weight Jacks w/170lb or 220lb Eibach springs

With the interest that this started with plus all the threads about weight jacks being so good & better than static drop springs, I thought for sure they'd sell easily but nothing? I'm not giving them away but not even any decent offers?
