I spoke to GC on Thursday. I was told they were in the process of writing the install instructions and beginning to put some kits together. They made me no guarantee but said, "maybe next week".
I'll post again after talking to them sometime next week.

Front you'll need to pull the top control arm assembly to swap a bushing around in there...
Good luck!

Thanks!  |

Thanks!  | I don't know just yet. I sent the links for them to join the forum today, and he (Jay) said he would have one of his guys figure it all out in a day or two. They are definitely about ready to go full speed ahead. The first production kit did ship today!
I will be talking to them on Thursday morning, if there isn't a post from them yet I will ask and report the protocol.
Thanks,

Yes, the factory springs will need to be compressed or use of some other american ingenuity to remove from the assembly. The GC springs don't have this issue as they are shorter and you don't need to preload them while assembly takes place.
I am making one tweak to the kit today

I still want the gain in performance and looks from that drop, is the price still under $600 for the kit?????? | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
