TheLoyale Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 My understanding is, you do not cut them. You want the extra coils, combined with the stiffer spring rate to lift the vehicle and ride better (Handle extra weight of Bumpers, EJ motor swap ect.)

Uberoo Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 your tempo springs might be different,but I had to cut a coil off just to even get them into the strut.the coil you want is NOT progressive BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is 100% true. I forgot about that bit of info. I want to say Scott (xbeerd) had this same issue with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikemike203 Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 i had to cut the first coil off them, there would have been no travel they fit terrable, im not to sure i like the way they sit all crooked n ************, if i had to redo it id look for something else i ordered the cc852 like everyone said, n they look terrable, they work, for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
