you will want the rear to come down more. Ive replaced lots of those rear springs with belltech or djms over the years.

Yes, I am starting to realize that as I read through all these threads. I wish I had found this site earlier....Lots of good info. What can I do to lower the rear more with the eibach springs?

return the kit honestly. How much was the kit ie front keys/rear shock extenders/rear springs shipped like 250 bucks?

your better off returning it and doing the rear with a different spring to sit lower then spending another 175 bucks on rear springs

Yep, 250....lol. I'm on a budget. Just bought a house....But if this drop kit wont make it sit level, then you are right I should return it. I would'nt be satisfied. I would love to see some pictures of a similar set up though. If I do decide to return the kit, what would be your advice with my budget?

Ok, let me just double check if I am in the return policy date. I held on to the kit for a couple weeks pricing around for a good deal on a install. 250 of a install was the lowest I got.

Tony, thank you for all your time and help. I am going to stick with this kit and get shock extenders. I ordered that kit through drive wire and they will make me pay for the shipping back and a 10% restocking fee. Lost money.... I will hit up the users here for the best deal on shock extenders, if nothing comes up do you sell that item individually?

I have the same kit, and had to get shock extenders, if you have the big black factory shocks, you may need to replace them as well for the extra 1" of drop, agree Tony?

Here is a Picture with and with out the 2/3 Drop.

Rides great with the 2/3 drop from eibach. I love the look... I can also see why so many members say that they wish the back was lower... It does sit higher than the front. But for me it is fine for now. Thanks to everyone for the help throughout this process, to tony: I will get with your for any future suspension modifications.:Handshake:
