Would love to know how this worked out for you.
I've had several posts on here of the results after installing everying and cutting the front coils down, drove my SS to work today and took this picture..

So Eibachs suck too?
I have nothing good to say about them, called them for info and the guy said what I had for the GBody was an old kit and could email me info on it, never got anything back. I cut the fronts down because I could given the shape of it and the rears are here in a box because I have no use for them.

Here is some info here...


I've mentioned it somewhere that the fronts I was trimming down but yea I bought the Eibach Pro Kit in Nov 2010 and installed it on my SS, so far the UMI Rears are settling in nicely and I trimmed the Eibach fronts down since I had that option without needing to spend any money on new front coils.

any time you static drop something it's a crap shoot,i don't care what marketing says.there's a few different factors with the car itself/owners vision's etc so there's no slam dunk of an application.plenty of people that had to trim the Moog 5662&5660's to their liking and those are revered springs in the GM world..
