I removed my Eibach lowering springs and installed the Hotchkis Stage 1 TVS. I have no use for the Eibachs anymore so I'm selling them on eBay but first, I'll let you guys have a crack at them. I've had them installed for less than a year so they still have quite a bit of life left in them. I'll let them go for $100 OBO plus shipping. I'm posting the auction up in a week so if you want them, let me know before then.
i have an 03 lux sport with the load leveling shocks...i seem to recall something about having to replace the load levelers if you want to use the springs...is that true? if so, whats the fix?
You'd have to either get the non-load leveling CTS shocks, or install a set of CTS-V shocks and do the WildWhl lowering mod. V shocks can be had for pretty cheap (<$100) from anyone who upgraded their V to the FG2's (many do it before they pick up their car new from the dealer).
How do you know if you have the non-leveling shocks? I've got an 04', no lux or sport package. How much does it cost to have someone install these? If it's not much, I'm interested.
Yup, Ody's right about the load leveling procedures. I'd recommend going to V route. Otherwise, downgrading shocks while updgrading springs is just counterproductive.
johnnyd: If you have a base trim CTS (no lux or lux sport package), you have non-load leveling shocks. You wouldn't have to modify the rear shocks at all. I'm not sure how much installation would cost. I just switched them in my garage and took me about 6 hours.
Ah crap, two of you posted you wanted them. Who gets them? johnnyd expressed interest first back on 1/15 so I think it makes sense to let him have them. Sorry yomommas
