    Nothing required but the tools to change a suspension out.

    no one murder me for not reading all 60 pages or for just being an idiot...
    but when you say no modification necessary, does that mean no welding is involved? It's completely bolt on?

    Thanks for helping a slow kid out....

    I'm sorry but I have no clue. They're the football (ish) shaped springs that you can run without adjusters, not the barrel coil over springs. I can't find them on the site either. I bought them off a forum member though and could track down his screen name in my PMs. He seemed to have more.

    For anyone interested in running it that low: The ride is HARSH. I really wouldn't recommend it for anyone too far over 20. The suspension travel in the rear is very minimal and your ass will bounce off the seat. But I fuckin love it.
    link please? i fail to find it on there site...

    Tell me about it. My e34 is a so harsh right now with Volglands and no spring pads. Its bone jarring.

    Damn, mine did that exact thing. I put a bit of JB weld on and it's been fine for the past few days. Not sure about longevity though.
    where did you get your rear springs from?

    Im sure if you look far bacj enough on this thread you will find some talking about their track setup
    I thought I read every post in this thread. Maybe I missed something. Some mentioned that they were interested in tracking these coilovers but no one actually has posted their first hand experience with them on the track.

    I just used some quick steel stuff. Hopefully it works I hates the rattle. But other than that and the soft rear springs I love these.

    Is the rear spring loose if you install it without adjusters? I feel like the base of the spring wouldn't fit as snug

    Mine came out with a little man power and everything disconnected. The fronts are easy I just spun the collar all the way down and it bolted up perfect. However ill get pictures of my rear shocks and want to see if any other car has had this problem... On the rear shock the part that covers the piston on top broke. Thus causing it to slide down and rattle. Any fix or should i just weld it?
