After reading a note from Brad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
I'm wonderin' "how did you know theses 180# were Eibach?" What's wrong with them? And is it bad to go with adjustable Bilstiens? C'on everybody,I would like to hear what you all have to say,to get my *edumcation* up! Hell,I just learned how to NOT install front torsions bars! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

My Eibach springs (350#) are RED in color. I believe that the color may be related to spring rates. I don't believe you can identify manufacturer of spring by color.
Attached file shows our springs on Bilstien shocks that were re-valved. Original source: Galen Bieker Garretson Engineering. (I do believe) I do wish I had the adjustable spring perches. Ours are simply snap-ringed to the shock body. There are 4 or 5 grooves (heights available). Luckily, our car is straight and is in balance (proven when we corner-balance our car annually). Good luck. Attached thumbnail(s) |
