Now that you've got the springs installed properly, don't forget to get the car aligned.

So, now that the problems have been ironed out, what do you think of the results?

LOVE IT car rides just like stock even though i do feel the rear to be a bit looser (more fishtailing) than with stock springs again i do have 18s on some not best tires i think thats making the biggest difference, besides that absolutly love it. EIBACH

shock bolt would be the nut on the very top of the suspension between the two top bolts that attach your struts to the chassis of the car, hope this helps

[quote name='gabster' date='Mar 15 2007, 09:11 AM']Not sure whether the ap1 prokit and ap2 prokits are different or not (doubt it) I do know that AP2 OEM rear suspension is overall (springs, shocks, sway bars, etc.) much softer than AP1s hence getting stiffer springs back there (on an AP2)

A stiffer rear sway bar will give you more oversteer rather than less.
