Alero Springs

[02AleroEco]

I have an 02 Alero 2.2 Eco 'Coupe'. I am getting new struts very very soon, and i want to lower it. im think Eibach springs. But do they sell a coilover kit for the alero, or could i get one for like a Honda or cavy and custom the mounts?

Ive searched on google but havent found anything more than springs

[AJules]

nobody makes coilovers specifically for the Alero who I've ever heard of

maybe you could get some from another vehicle to work? idk

[bdyman]

i had a custom made set, let me tell ya it was the worst ride i have ever encountered, oldsman has a video of me in my car, i heard every bump, felt every little crack in the road, it was so bad i wanted to cut my self to stop the pain
oldsman has the set that came off the osv alero, and matt fuller was on a set as well
dont know how matts rode but i do know how scots rides and its like your on train tracks its awesome ride
a while back mantapart made a set for i think 1,400 but if you want to get low, and have the performance why not go air ride best of both worlds

[super white alero1]

Read my siggy lol

btw bdyman its $1500.00 plus shipping.

[02AleroEco]

air ride is gay.. no offense to anyone thats just my 2 cents. ill just lower it with springs and new struts.

[bdyman]

why would air ride be gay??? have you ever been in a car on air ride??? it handles better then a lowering spring, and as good as coil overs, its gay becasue why???? is it gay becasue you cant do the install??? is it gay becasue you cant afford it?? is it gay becasue its not a cool import thing???
this blows my mind, lol most guys on air like my self will pull up to a lowered car or some other "cool" car and hit the switch every time us gay guys on air will get the crowd over to our cars faster then some car with neon lights and a painted interior
so why is it gay??

lmao i love you :lol:

[[ion] C2]

seriously how can you think air ride is gay?

you can adjust your ride height whenever and how much you want. drop it when you park, low when you drive, see a steep driveway or bump raise it up 4x4 lol

[bdyman]

you wanna know how i know your gay?...............cold play said its gay so that makes you gay
air ride is the shiznit!!!!, go ahead and make your car look like a ufo, i`ll pull up, hit a switch, and make all your little gay friends run to my car, so your gay :)

[02AleroEco]

ooooh booy. go get midol for your pms and come back after a week.

i dont have to explain my reasons, i think its gay, just like i think the razzi kit is gay. to each his own.

besides its an alero, not really a great tuner, yea i own one, and no im not afraid to say it is one of the worst cars to tune, you all are just wasting your money.

and for your info, i could easily do the install, and if i really wanted it, id have the money to buy it. like i said its gay so i wouldnt waste my time

yes everyone is entitled to their own opinion. yes some people dont like the same shit. yes you saying that air ride is gay in fact means you like penis.

and hahaha waht did u hope to accomplish by insulting the aleromod community? you would think eventually wed stop getting these. ok. since u game bdyman medical advice ima give you some. go chug 2 bottles of draino and stfu.

[bdyman]

he can say what he wants too i dont care, again air ride kicks ass, how am i and the rest of the people on this board, and other n-body site wasting money???
the grand am is the same car so is the malibu, and there are allot of great looking cars on air ride, go tell the big names like troy tripanier/chip foose/ r.i.p boyd coddington/ just to name a few all those guys use air ride, when my car sells i will get all the money i have invested back to me just like every one else will,

i think ya need to be in a car on air ride and maybe it will change your mind, and your will see it has the best of both worlds, handling/performance/ and adjustablity at a fingers touch
how is it gay??

[bkathsalero]

idk im no frickin genius but, u say its dumb to waste money on an alero.. "THEN WTF ARE U BUYING SPRINGS 4!!" go get a civic if u cant handle the challange of an alero, its not a cookie cutter car like u want it to be!! It takes dedication man!!


P.S. air ride is the shyt, have fun with ur coilovers, and tell me how drivin in any old dowtown area is

[02AleroEco]

you people are all the same, gettin ripshit for someones opinion.

Yea i hate air ride, and riding in one with it prolly wont change my mind, so how am i gay?

i think everyone one this forum ranting on and on about how great of a car the alero is to tune. the fact is its an alero and thats it. its never gonna stack up to anything else, no matter how much money gets put into it

[bdyman]

the only car on coil overs i would drive in is scots, ppppssshhhtttttt got bags???
lol, dude you said its gay, and ya i think it would change your mind, it drives just like a lowerd car on springs
ppppssshhhhtttttttttttttttttt damn check out that car!!!! hell ya its on air!!! i say no more
got air?

[Valley olds]

02AleroEco, I really do believe what bdyman said about you not liking air ride cuz you can't install/ afford it. You are saying you want to lower your alero, yet you claim air ride is gay. That is really ignorant to say from your behalf because air ride will give you the drop you want, without the frustration of hitting pot holes or scraping on speed bumps.

As for Aleros not being good tuners, why wouldn't they? The all aluminum dohc ecotec engine makes equal horsepower to my 85 5.0L V8 engine, yet the ecotec is in a car that is way lighter. I have actually tied up to a V6 mustang with dual exhaust, MSD, and Cai, on my stock ecotec. Also, note that stock, the ecotec is the engine that makes least horsepower of the 3 engines available on the Alero. So, why do you think the Alero isnt a good tuner?

[02AleroEco]

its all in preference.
I dont think the alero is a good tuner, simply because its an oldsmobile. oldsmobile was never a good company, yea the cars were affordable, but not without all sorts of problems

[Valley olds]

Well, I guess everyone does have different opinions. Personally, I like oldsmobile because it offers the best of both worlds. The alero for example, has a bit of a performance looking exterior, while the interior (especially if equipped with leather) looks luxurious. As for problems, I dont see why oldsmobile would have more problems than a Buick, Pontiac, or Chevy since they share the same engine and drivetrain (with some minor changes). Also, if something does go wrong, parts for a GM are way cheaper than parts for an import. Also, oldies oldsmobile are very reliable. Some came equipped with forged cranks. The connecting rods were forged as well.

[02AleroEco]

exactly, we all have different opinions, i dont like bags, and thats simply that

[01silveralero]

they were around before ford and chevy how can u say they wont a good company. they did have a decent 350 rocket engine. the olds 455 is still an engine people are looking for til this day. they produced 35.2 million cars over 107 years. they were among the oldest in the world, after Daimler and Peugeot. all cars have their own unique problems. some have rust problems like most fords do. some have electrical problem that lead to engine fires. some have oil leak problems like most of gm 3800 engines do. some have timing belt/chain problems.

There are some pretty quick aleros and ga's out there that will beg to differ.

[bdyman]

oh yes nick is right especially the cars blown, or turbo, and the ecotec makes allot of power just ask john lingenfelter, well hes dead but he made over 1,000 with the ecotec
psssshhhtttttt got bags?

[super white alero1]

How is airbag gay, or how is springs gay?

Explain, both serves differing purpose. I wouldn't recommend airbag on the track but airbag do take the cake in show.

[bdyman]

oh yes air ride tech was the 1st company to prove air ride was made for performance, they finished the road coarse and layed out there car
now thats what i call shutting people up

[clutch1]

Lmfao, this thread is great, thank goodness I stumbled on it. :lol:

[02AleroEco]

im still standing by that i dont like it. and i am going to custom fab the coilovers.

So call me gay, but in all fairness someone who(not naming names) gets this defensive over a piece of equipment, must have something wrong, or just likes to try and be tough online, because he knows that he cant be seen. but its really not a show, so stop trying to prove something, because it really annoying, and it seems on this bored its always the same person who trys to be that one tough one

[bdyman]

dude i was on a custom made coil over it was terrible, i have nothing to prove, especially to you, i post the facts thats all if ya cant face the thruth i dunno what to tell ya

[Alero_1986]

. .

[JOEY GLADSTONE]

best is pulling up to some ricer at my ride height and he said "ha, im lower then you" and you just hit the switch and make then feel like an idiot

and yes coilovers FTL, ur gonna cry about the ride quality and how u could have had air for like another 800$

[Alerosaint]

hmmm....one of the issue I thought about air ride system was they was not as good in performance...so is the system that good...cause is was gonna spend 500 bones on a strut and lowering spring set up but if the air ride gonna give me a performance ill just save for that

[fraser89]

its all in preference.

You just dont think this is a good tuner because it wasnt in any fancy little racing movie you saw. The point of tunning/customizing your car is making it unique. You clearly know nothing about aleros and what they can be.

exactly, we all have different opinions, i dont like bags, and thats simply that

Thats because you like teabags on your face. stfu

Never, give me an effin break.

You mean wind bags? I guess you don't like yourself that much.:lol:

i cant wait to see how this turns out.




So call me gay
you're gay.

[paulyb]

Over all it comes down to one thing,

Personal prefrence. I love air ride, but i also wish there was a nicely made, decently affordable coil over as well, just for diffrent options.

I do have to say, if you have such a bad taste about olds, why do you own one. For the cost of the alero, you could scoop uo a civic, integra or accord and have a wider choice in parts. The alero may not have vast amount of parts, but it does provide a unique platform to work off, and in the end customizing cars is all about one thing.

Setting yourself out from the rest of the pack............

live above the norm my friend.

The only reason i got an alero, was because at the time, i didnt have alot of money, and it was a nice first car.. at first i like it, but itve had nothing but problems with it. maybe im the unlucky one..

And im sure i probably could have gotten a civic. but i just dislike hondas.

But all teh bull aside. im gonna wait on lowering, just cuz of pot holes n shit.. but for the Stuts. Since its FWD, i plan on getting Monroe Sensa-trak, for the front, and gas-matic in the back.

[super white alero1]

First you said you want to lower, now you say you going to wait, what answer are you looking for? You haven't search hard enough yet if, you think there are no support for aleros. There are support, it just time consuming and very difficult but the support is there.

[bdyman]

mechanically i have not had a problem at all, and hoistory with oldsmobile?? dude c`mon look at the 442, linda vaughn is called miss hurst shifter, i dunno about this guy, how could you not like a manufactuer that was around for 100 plus yrs??




best is pulling up to some ricer at my ride height and he said "ha, im lower then you" and you just hit the switch and make then feel like an idiot

and yes coilovers FTL, ur gonna cry about the ride quality and how u could have had air for like another 800$

oh ya he will mine were custom made and i wanted to shot my self just to end the pain, he will find out when the ride is jarring his kidneys loose

[02AleroEco]

thats what you think.

plus with coils you dont need to worry bout the possibility ofa leak in the line, or blowing the compressor.

[bdyman]

ive been on air ride for 3 plus yrs and never have i had one problem no leaks not on problem at all, it all depends if ya know what your doin
so your wrong again, i dunno what to tell ya

[super white alero1]

Damn you two still at it?

[bdyman]

he will see the light, and see that air ride is the way to go

[alerored04]

bdyman how much does the compressor and all the other stuff weigh? I thought my car handled well until I rode in Jordan's bagged alero, my only concern would be added weight in the trunk to haul around. That and the fact that I can't afford it nor could I justify it.

[bdyman]

its not to heavy, maybe 10-15 lbs, air ride tech stuff is pretty light, soon everyone will be on air ride,,,,,,,mmmmhhuuaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[02AleroEco]

you can moan all you want.. i dont want/ care for bagging my car.

So keep goin, its just in one opening and out the other, i dont care about your opinion, and never really did. so ur wasting time

[bdyman]

that fine next time you are on here asking for help about your car, i will make sure i wont give you the CORRECT advice, since iam gay and all
pppppssssshhhhttttttt,,,,got air???

[02AleroEco]

whatever, i dont care.. i have never come on here for help, only suggestions.

I know more than enough about cars to beable to fix it without asking you

[bdyman]

lol, well if ya know so much then why are you asking about lowering springs then???

[bdyman]

i will try... but in the mean time, i know they dont have an axle in the back cuz its a FWD. but the rod that connects the tires or whatever the hell its called.. hahhahahahhah and to whoever made the dibs on headlights.. humor is always good

[02AleroEco]

and excuse me sir, you aparently didnt read the thread, maybei might not have gotten the right part, but that was in regards to my accident where i was hit in the rear, not front. but thanks for trying.


and im sorry we dont have the right depends for you

[02AleroEco]

i dont know what it is about ppl who tune. but they all think they are higher than everybody else.

Whatever you are trying to prove or whoever your trying to impress. but hears some news, it isnt impressing me, and i bet not many other ppl

so you can go on and on, and again i dont care, so what if i dont know the name of a specific part.. i dont like working on suspension related items anyway, only body work, and sound, and that type of stuff.


Someone just close this thread, cuz its pointless, and obivously coming here for advise, only got me shotdown, i didnt even get a clear answer, so there is no sense having this take space on the server

I may be captain obvious here, but i believe you started it by insulting someone else's choice of suspension setup. Maybe it's just me..

[bdyman]

ya know cliff your right he did insult me and other people for chosingdifferent suspension set ups, and dude, you work in a grocery store, you call a suspension item a "rod thingy" and you say you do body work??? oh god thats gotta be scary

[02AleroEco]

first of all.. what does 'rob thingy' have to do with me asking if something could be done?

and second of all i just simply said that i dont like airride and never will..you consider that insulting someone.. wow is all i can say.

And dont worry if i do body work.. maybe you dont, but i know enough to fix it right. maybe i might not work on suspension, but who cares.. you are obviously the only one who does

[bdyman]

me?!?!!? not do body work ??!?! wow that news to me then what have i been doing for the past 15 yrs, goin to a grocery store to work????
ok smart ass, if you know it all tell me the "right way" and the steps in replaing a roof, or sectioning a frame rail, or the correct procedure before you weld , or the rule of replacing and repairing, sorry dude you sitting in a garage sanding a fiberglass box does not make you a body man, you say your a grocery working body man, explain to me those items i posted
and yes you did call my self and the other member on here gay ya might want to stop and think might want to look through all your insulting posts, and think twice who you throw insults at

So you can say what you want. you can make me look like an idiot all you want. i dont care.

[bkathsalero]

how can u know how to do body work and not know how to weld? WTF, and alot of bodywork has to do with suspension also, at my work (its mechanical and collision) if we even touch a wheel on a collision car we have to do an alignment, also u say u replaced ur front end.. putting a bumper on IS NOT bodywork, it takes no skill really, now try having to patch a bumper, or replace a quarter panel or mud or paint, i can go on and on.. just click on my profile and look at my profile pic and tell me u can do that... just got sick of this kid talkin like he knows and then backing out of it, "I WANT SUSPENSION TO LOWER MY ALERO" to "ALEROS ARE DUMB TO MOD IM NOT GONNA DO" and "I CAN DO BODYWORK" to "I CANT WELD" what the crap!! :lol:

im starting to have fun..... i never said i knew it all.. and yes you can read, i did replace my frontend.. and not shit if you touch a wheel in repair it needs to be aligned. how is putting on a bumper not body work..

w/e.. its fun, but im done with all of this... haha it was amazingly fun to do this.. i would never lower my car, just cuz how much my roads suck in my state.. and if i did, i would indeed want control of the height. and yes that would mean airride. haha airride is pretty sick. i just wanted to cause trouble and see some reactions.. thanks for playing along.

and "ALEROS ARE DUMB TO MOD IM NOT GONNA DO", was part of it.. aleros are probably the cars with the cheapest kit to put on it, in terms of price. that ive seen. and if they would have put the OSV into production i would get one.
The car as a whole has a very nice shape. the wing is nice, but id like a little more if it was a bit higher. the only comlaint on the car i have is the bad gas mileage that im getting with it

and in terms of kitting and lowering, i dont think anyone can go wrong with alpine white body, and powder black rims, or powder gold.

do i see a fellow body man in the mists????, hes right stock boy, my 12 yr old can put my bumper back on lol and putting a bumper on or a headlight mount panle does not make you a body man or can you say you do body work, you wouldnt last a week in this trade working in the heat, welding when its 95 out, slinging bondo and sanding for days on end,
so no you cant say i do body work, when you work with high strenght steel on bmws or mercedes or subaru, when you put a 1/4 or a rear body panle on those cars then you can say i do body work
so dont come in this forum screaming you do something but your cluless about cars and the automotive field

[billytheman1188]

Someone just close this thread, cuz its pointless, and obivously coming here for advise, only got me shotdown, i didnt even get a clear answer, so there is no sense having this take space on the server


just shut up already. You come on here and bash everyone on here for tuning an alero....saying oldsmobile sucks and you think were all gonna be nice to you???? You already look dumb enough, bdyman made you look stupid. So just STOP POSTING HERE SO THIS THREAD CAN DIE. cause nobody wants to see you argue like a little girl.

[[ion] C2]

oldsmobile was never a good companythe fact is its an alero and thats it. its never gonna stack up to anything else, no matter how much money gets put into itit is one of the worst cars to tune, you all are just wasting your money.

This guy is awesome. :lol:

[02AleroEco]

i dont care if you are all nice to me or not.. you could be the biggest dick to me and i wouldnt care

[billytheman1188]

i dont care if you are all nice to me or not.. you could be the biggest dink to me and i wouldnt care

well im proud of you buddy. but your annoying, and you bash oldsmobile..... so go fix the rod thingy and stop posting on this thread, cause its getting old and annoying. Do you realize how retarded this thread has gotten? All your doing is saying how your not anyones bitch, and you can take everyone being a dick to you, go buy your damn springs and STFU. Thanks

[billytheman1188]

C2;371783']This guy is awesome. :lol:

This guy is retarded.:lol: (there, i fixed it for you;))

[TheEdgeofSanity]

has anybody told this guy to GTFO? i mean, this is all pretty pointless and its apparent that he's so small-minded that no matter what anybody says, he's gonna take it as criticism or just be an ass and have a stupid response.

[02AleroEco]

my rod thingy was never broken, as the alero is FWD.. my accident was in the rear. and it has been fixed for months..

But thanks for your time

[TheEdgeofSanity]

ok, you got the last word in so Congrats! you can leave now!

[02AleroEco]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Bmorezcmunee]

epic fail

[02AleroEco]

no its not an epic fail, no one understood that i wasnt serious with anything..
so i got sick of it

[Midgear]

the alero will never stack up against anything else?

this guy needs to meet a few other people around here lol

[02AleroEco]

haha, here i go again.
Tuners piss me off

[Midgear]

you went from asking about springs, to bashing the alero.

still gettin springs for it? :lol:

[super white alero1]

Why are you guys still feeding the troll?

[02AleroEco]

and i dont know if im gonna get springs.. i wanted to do coilover, so that way i could control it. because with the springs its gonna be one height, and thats it,

But atleast with coilover id adjust it if needed.

Super white alero1, on ur signiture it says that you have coilover. how do you like it? and what brand are they or are they custom?

[bdyman]

ppppsssstttt..........bam i think i just smashed the wicked witch of the east.......ppppsssstttttttback to ride height nope its just some stock boy

[super white alero1]

Mantapart $1700.00, and I'm still waiting for them. They changed the date on me again.

[02AleroEco]

hahahaha.. were they custom made?

[leoalero]

Hi,super white alero1,i wanna buy these coilovers for my alero,are those like porsche struts??I think its german,good stuff!!

[super white alero1]

I strongly recommend you consider this when dealing with Mantapart. It a long wait. I read all the reviews and their parts are quality, but the wait is incredibly long. Someone reviewed it took nearly 9 months before they saw anything. I'm waiting on my 3rd month now.

But according to Bill, he uses Bilstein dampers, comes with a lifetime warranty and $250.00 plus shipping to rebuild them.

[Cliff8928]

Well, the three magic letters when dealing with Mantapart are "COD".

You could always get some from Truechoice like Mfuller did..

[02AleroEco]

god 3 months!!!.. lol im impatient so that prolly wouldnt work.. hahaha im gonna look into it, probably.

arent bilstein one of the best damper brands?

[JOEY GLADSTONE]

lol the reason why you arent a body man for replacing your front bumper is because its 2 push pins and 12 screws....sit and sand something for hundreds of hours because you are dedicated to what you want your car to look like then you can say that you are a bodyman.

[bdyman]

http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n210/bdyman2001/002.jpg


but do that over and over for 15plus yrs, have ya learned to shape metal??

http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n210/bdyman2001/DSCF0825.jpg

like that, your far from a body man you wouldnt last a week in this trade, but becasue i do my own finanaces does that make me a cpa?? no it does not, so which one is it stock boy that ya do are you a stock boy or work construction?? make up your mind dude
and you still didnt answer my question, how do you splice a frame rail on a uni-body car???

[02AleroEco]

its called school and part time summer jobs

[bdyman]

then keep it at that and next time dont say or call your self a body fender tech when your not!!!!
and when you can answer my question, i will stop but until then keep stockin the shelves

[02AleroEco]

just cuz im sick and tired of ur shit.. i DO MY OWN WORK. there are you happy, little baby?

[02AleroEco]

Well, the three magic letters when dealing with Mantapart are "COD".

You could always get some from Truechoice like Mfuller did..


does truechoice have better service? in terms of edlivery and shipping?

[Cliff8928]

does truechoice have better service? in terms of edlivery and shipping?

I've never dealt with them personally, you may want to PM Mfuller about that one.

[02AleroEco]

alright i just might do that, thanks

Would you recommend them over mantapart?

[meadus101]

Bodyman Might be a dick.



But he knows his shit... Sadly.


If I had the money, I'd fly him up myself for the work on my car.

[bdyman]

i appreciate the honesty, then save your money i dont come cheap

[02AleroEco]

yea hes a dink
but are you serious?
I wouldnt let him near my car

[bdyman]

lol, holy fuckin shit,i think its the other way around, you should be no where near a car, if your asking about lowering springs, and posting what is that rod thingy, ummmmm ya and askin the if the 4 banger gauges are different then the v6, wow!!!! you need to stay far away from a car
just stay in isle 8 and clean up puke

[02AleroEco]

so me asking about lowering springs and coilovers means i cant be near a car.
im sorry that i was curious if anyone had done it, and that i didnt want to go through the trouble for it not to work. acually no im not sorry i was curious, there is nothing that says i cant as for advice abotu a car..
So can you sit and say that you have NEVER ONCE asked for advice in terms of your car?

And thanks to everyone who gave me an answer an help, expect for bdyman.. Hes not worthy of a thnaks from me

And if you have, just sit down and shut up

[[ion] C2]

This is still going?

Rule 14.

Rule 62 also applies.

[bdyman]

^^^^stfu!!!!,

[Midgear]

pie is awesome.

[[ion] C2]

^^^^stfu!!!!,

FYI

Rule 14. Don't talk to trolls, that means they win.

Rule 62. The internet is serious fucking business.

[02AleroEco]

Im done now, for good

[darksobsession]

dun be homophobic, that's gay

[Gr1m]

holy god i cant believe the mods let it get drawn out this far lol.

[kwhauck]

holy thread revival!! BTW i have mfullers custom coilovers..

[heineck]

does he still make em i want some coilovers?

[kwhauck]

he had them custom made, and the average modder which i'm pretty sure includes you, wouldn't like the price tag

[meadus101]

not much you can do when you pay for something by the suspension guru.

[heineck]

hmm that sucks cuz no one else makes coilovers, manufacturers i mean

[NickAlero2000]

ya but if u have the money for these...
they're TOTALLY worth it!

[kwhauck]

just for a price range, these were used rebuilt and i paid $1000....

but that's actually pretty good if you think about all 4 AGX with springs would be around $800-$1000

[worknprog.99]

bought some on ebay installed them and they look and ride great

[alerored04]

I give that a month til the springs wear out and the car starts to bottom out. Those ebay ones were not made with heavy enough springs to support the car. Have fun at the dentist.

[worknprog.99]

my buddy has had the same ones for over a year (no problems)

[worknprog.99]

there sprint performance springs not off brand bullshit
