[align=left]check it out - - after 3 months of waiting, FINALLY i have everything i need. Skunk 2 front and rear camber kit, Koni Yellow Sport shocks and struts, and Ground Control coilovers. im hoping that me and my dad can install most of this ourselves but im going to be honest, i dont even know how the coilovers go on the shocks/struts. and which ones go on which? well is there any tips/advice...anything i need to know before installing? anything else i need?? take a look at the pics and tell me. i cant wait to lower it!!!
I sent you the link to the Koni install writeup, right?
first of all, throw away the silver spring perches. you don't need them. The shocks on the left are for the rear. Look at the springs, there is a series of 3 numbers on them. The last one is the spring rate. If you ordered standard rates, the higher one goes in the front. You will have to cut the bump stops in half, and trim the dust boot down to about 3". You'll also have to enlarge the hole in the dust boot for the Konis' larger shaft. Other than that... there should be instructions in the box with the Ground Controls, I think. You'll reuse the stock top hats, washers, and rubber bushings. Good luck with everything! I'll be away from the computer most of the weekend, but I'll check in at some point, so post here if you have any trouble.

It's this black plastic sleeve over the shaft of your stock shocks.

camber kit - $295 shipped off ebay and then the koni's and ground controls as a kit - $845 shipped from redshift. i think i got this stuff for a very good price. well tomorrow is the day ( actually today ) as it being 12:18 a.m. I really do hope i can do this and that everything works out good. mxs, when you put the sleeve on the koni shock or strut, doesnt the part have to slide over that stopping clip on the koni? ( you can turn it one way and it will set directly on it and then the other way it slides right over the clip thing and its hidden. im pretty sure this is the way it goes. )
Ok, well i don't have that same setup, i dont hvae that kind of money (wish i did), but i did my setup myself, so ill check up and let me know if you have any questions and i might be able to help

ok so in my picture, the ground controls on the right are for the rear? the spring rate is smaller and so are the springs. but the coilover part....the threaded part is longer than the other one. i figured this would go with the front ones. thats the way they were shipped though. is this correct?
my new stuff (FINISHED!!!!)
