Heres the deal. I dropped my ride over a half year ago with eibach pro kit springs. I remember reading on this forum that the front had to be loaded when installing, which i did. the problem is that ever since I dropped it, the rear looked rather high....i didn't load rear b/c i didn't take the entire arm off. i thought for a while that i installed the springs backwards but after calling eibach, they confirmed the i had installed them correctly (by part #). so now i'm wondering if i should have loaded the rears regardless. i'm gonna redo the rears tomorrow just to make sure but my question is do you think i may have permanently damaged anything (like bushing or anything else) by riding around like that (given that they needed to be loaded) ? i will feel like the biggest a$$ to seee the car settle to a nice lower height. but a happy a$$ since it'll finally look right. i'll let ya'll know tomorrow.

 

can't wait till i get off work.....freakin thing is driving me apesheit. then again i cant even look at it till tomorrow after work

 

ok....i must be a bigger idiot than i thought. upon closer inspection i remember the rear strut assembly slides right in without unbolting anything...therefore there would be no way of loading the rear!!! maybe the height is what it is. ARGH i'm confused. anybody remember installin the rears in their car? any input would be greatly appreciated. damn its dark outside tring to fruck with this shiet!!

 

ttt

 

lol sorry no clue how to help you

 

I'm going to be lowering my car with Ground Controls on Monday and curious what you mean by "loading" the fronts.?.

Sorry to be no help though.

 

I think he means "preloading".

 

yeah, thats what i mean.

so , anybody got any input for the rear?? i think i just need lower springs
