    pics of GC rears installed

    before all the newbs try to boost their post count, i did search.
    all i could find was pics of the fronts and or how to shorten the front struts before installation

    can some one post pics of the actual rear set up installed on a car?
    i don't need pics of it on the ground showing off the height, just the rear set up itself (bump stop or what ever they call it)

    thanks

          haha, if I raised my adjusters all the way up I'd be 1" taller than the stock suspension.

            i am happy with the ride height of my bilstein sports and sport springs, i just would like to go with a stiffer spring rate than what they are now.

              I'm running 350/475 which is the softest you can get from GC. Summitracing.com has softer springs than this, though. The ride is very stiff and I've had to hunt down a lot of new rattles, but it is definitely driveable.

              I'm not running slammed, I'm on bilstein sports, vorshlag plates, AKG poly bushings, and unmodified front strut housings, if that helps.

                        they have sold plenty of 300/475

                        if der affe wants either 300# or 350#, he can has them for cheap from me.
