KYB GR2 and Sprint
I've been searching around for a while and I plan on lowering my car for the first mod, just a little worried about clearance
rear: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KYB-G...#ht_1677wt_897 front: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KYB-3...#ht_1677wt_897 Springs: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SPRIN...1#ht_500wt_956 and I plan on buying the boot kit from summit http://www.summitracing.com/parts/KYB-SB104/ prices are pretty low on the stuts.. are they just dirt cheap or am I missing something? wheels are stockers with 205/65R15 alignment I know is a must but will I need camber bolts as well? |
im picking up those same struts. ill be installing those with my eibach springs since i already have those.
i have for tires, nexens 225/40R18 im clearing just fine and my car sits pretty low with the eibach springs so i dont think you would run into any problem. its definitly cheap for 20 bucks, iv looked around and they are going for about 60 bucks for an alero. so good looks on the link, i might just have to order them from there if they have more in stock *edit* yep theres 10 in stock for rear and 3 for front, im picking them up from here. now i just need to get new strut mounts |
Let us know how it goes, those are NOT the right struts for these cars. If you are going to buy from Summit (not a bad choice) use their website to find the right parts and save on shipping...
Front Struts - KYB-334229 - $58 each Rear Struts - KYB-334295 - $56 each Boot Kits - you got it Springs - will fit Do yourself a favor and replace the front mounts at the same time. Enjoy! |
thanks for saving my ass on the wrong struts lol, but two of the 3 remaining sold. was that you lowpros? looks like I'll buy from summit
edit: just purchased springs...should ship tomorow |
Haha sucks for the other guy haha good luck with the struts though man. You shouldn't have any clearance issues unless your pushing 18's with fat tires. :p
|
anyone recommend camber bolts with the sprint springs? they give a 1.75in drop both front and rear. and I don't want a ghetto ride..
|
no need to adjust camber with our cars and the drop involved...

why replace the mounts? |
mounts go bad often...mine are starting to go as it is so I already planned on replacing them
|
got pics of said bad mounts so I know the difference between good and bad kind sir?

nonono, not me, i didnt read into the specs yet to see if they were for that car, but looks like i dont have to. i knew somthing was fishy when i saw it going for 20, and the rest i saw were for sixty . |

does your front or rear end squeak when going over bumps or turning? that how you know if they are going bad, I've also heard your car will shake when braking at highway speeds, but mine aren't that bad yet |
wow thanks for the heads up now I know whats wrong with the cutlass
