Eibach Pro Kit
Eibach Pro Kit
Just finished up the pro kit install...went very smooth, didn't use a spring compressor...and i had the ws6 springs too.
Car feels much more controlled over bumps, brake dive is GONE and body roll is virtually eliminated. Feels more consistent in the corners too...Very nice drop in the front and rear. pics to come
Highly recommended!!!

Glad everything went well. I almost went the the pro kit but decided to get the global wests instead. Of course I've been waiting on backorder for over a month, but thats another story.

I am about to do those springs too. Are you saying you didn't have to use a compressor to get the stock front springs out too? That's great news if so. Let me know, thanks.

I used a few hyd. jacks to lower the arms down slowly .. didn't trust just one. The isolators need to be removed and properly seated on your springs for the front. You will notice that the 'endpoints' of the eibach vs stock are in different spots. By aligning the two holes in the arm only, the car will sit too high if the isolator isn't removed and mounted properly. I taped it down to the top of the spring to make sure it didn't move. Don't worry if it's bent outta shape a little, you can form it into shape using electrical tape around the spring in multiple spots.
Force the a arm down with your foot and wedge the spring into position..I was able to do this using only my hands. Jack the arm up and guide the strut through the hole and the rest is pretty straight forward. Torque everything down with the car at rideheight.
