My Eibachs were a little low in the rear so I added the doughnut spring spacers from Jeggs - Worked great and about 12.00 per side.

Ouch! :eek: Should have done the JRL mod. Cost me 65$ at local muffler shop. You never know its been done unless going WOT. Wife has never even noticed.

Enjoy the board! I love my XC!

What a great post - Have really enjoyed following the progress. So what is the next upgrade or modification?[thumbup]

Just wondering? I need the right rear springs.

Did you remove your resonator? I am about to upgrade my ehaust and am trying to figure out if I need it back on or leave it off?

Chilled Man,

What lowering springs are you using? I have a set of HR and got the fronts installed and they look awesome. However my indi tells me I have the wrongs rear springs. What Heico set...

Just did this modification and I am so excited - really wakes up the car! Make the car feel so much more responsive.
