ya thats what im thinking just realy crapy.LOL
but are they for stock height most likely? or lowered alittle?
unfortunatly i didnt take any pictures of the car from the side...

im just curious if i slap on my stock struts/springs from my 99civic if it will lift the car up.... dont realy wanna buy new drop parts for it..... ill be driving this civic more in the winter as long as i get the engine replaced before than that is... so need all the ground clearance i can get. just not sure how high these EGs sit stock....

i dont understand ur question...whats for stock height? whats lowered a little?

that spring is waaay to short, only 6 coils?? does that shock have a bump stop in it? looks like there would be very very little shock travel if at all any..

well those are the only pictures i took of them and the civic.

im curious to how high this EG should sit if i put on my stock suspension... well JUST realized my stock springs wont work. so will have to buy new springs for it... but at least ill be able to use the stock struts off my 99 on it.

well i look at the site i bought my Stecs from and it has different springs for the 92-95 other than my 96-00.... tho the struts show the same. so i guess something is different with the top cup i asume.

will be geting the trailer ready to pick this civic up in just alittle bit
