in case anyone is interested, i will now be able to produce a 2.5" lift for those that don't want the full 4 inches or drive more on the street than off it. it will be considerably cheaper and will come with all sorts of options, one being that you can include the upper strut mounts or leave them out, depending on your intended use. you can also include the sway-bar legs, or leave them out, it's up to you. shocks are somewhat of an issue, though, i haven't quite figured out which lengths to go with yet, so, that'll take a little research, but as far as the coils, all i need is for someone to order a set and test them for me. i'll even give a small discount for the feedback.

shocks are somewhat of an issue I'm guessing that you are refering to/about the rear ones??? Or do you mean all of them. My front are stock size. I was just wondering if I could go with a larger front struts?? What would be the issues <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Where are the pictures <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" />

yes the rears, there is not longer replacement available for the front and likely never will be.

Wouldnt longer struts cause the cv's to come loose , just like in excess of 4" lift?

well, maybe, but it might also allow more uptravel, depending on the type of upper strut mount.

well, it will depend on what all you want with it, but it will go by the separate pieces prices on my vendor forum page, most likely.....
lemme check it and i'll be back...
ok, i'm back.
it will most likely be $375.00 plus shipping (which is about 25 bucks, usually) for the coils. anything else you want to add to the list is up to you, it will be like you were buying the parts all separately. when cash flow is heavier than the usual trickle, we can maybe talk about discounts, too, so keep that in mind.

i have not produced the kit yet, because i am waiting for an order, but, there isn't much left to chance, i'll be using the original Eibach lift as a basis, so, the kit should come out right on target with a good ride and good flex. the only thing i have to figure out now is what length of shock to use so that the coils don't fall out in the rear. so, whenever you're ready....... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
