I have lowered my car and I am not happy with the front end height and ride. I bought the kit 3 years ago so there is no way I can return it. Plus I have used the rears and are fairly happy with the stiffness, just need it a bit higher.

Anyway, what free height would I need with a 700lb spring, and lowered about 1.5'ish inches.(basically the eibach sport front springs)

For the rear, is there a kit similar to the adjustable ground control one thats not so expensive and doesnt come with a set of springs?

 

Hey Jay, How you been. I see you have a new car- Is it that convert you always wanted?
I lost my info on my front springs but if I recall it is on these boards somewhere. I remember them being in the neighborhood of 12.5inches free height. I would access that you would want to try a free height in the range of 14 inches and then trim them down slightly as needed to set the front exactly where you want it AND keeping close to 700lbs- of course the trimming will up the rate slightly, but not much to worry about. Just make sure you have good struts that can damper those higher spring rates as well as have non sloppy valving so it does not bobble on little bumps.

I still have all the spring info in safe place

Your rate was 800 though. I may end up going to that.


Convert Ive waited 16 years for, and hunted for 5 months
