so looking at the pictures those rings look more like spacers than anything else. unless there there so that you can spin the nut/adjuster without spinning the spring. kinda like a bearing? if im understanding correctly?

 

[untouchable4206]

The sleeves consist of a threaded tube that goes over the strut/shock, a perch screws onto the tube and provides adjustability and lock into place with either a locking screw or another perch on the bottom that locks in place, the spring goes on after that and then assemble the top like factory. The purpose is to provide height adjustment and refine the height to personal liking or for performance purposes. The thrust bearings, first pic on the first page, serve two important purposes; to keep the front strut spring from binding and making noise when you turn and to allow you to adjust the height while full weight is on the spring by turning the perch to move it up or down the threaded tube.

Hey untouchable since you live in Henry county how much would it cost for you to build it if I purchase the parts? I'm in Clayton county.

To the people who have asked about lowered cars. If you have never owned a lowered car, you can't drive them like a stock height car. IF YOU FLY OVER RAILROAD TRACK TRACKS OR BIG BUMPS EXPECT TO BOTTOM OUT EITHER THE CAR OR THE SUSPENSION OR BOTH

I tend to drive my car like it's dropped anyway. After a decade of Jeep ownership, my stock 200 and sister's stock '06 Charger feels slammed in comparison to my stock Cherokee.

Price was about $189. Just a standard Honda Civic Kit with QA1 Springs. The collar for the front had to pressed on, but a rubber hammer would do the same. Very easy and inexpensive install.

Is there a specific year to get of the Civic type? Or just happens that is correct tube diameter?
Thanks

 

[Stormracer]

Sorry another question, there is various QA1 springs on Ebay, do you have part number? Also on the thrust bearing would be helpful!

Thanks once again!

 

[untouchable4206]

Any civic will work. Front sleeves have to be hammered on, rubber mallet works. Thrust bearings are 2.5 inside diameter from summit racing. Springs also came from summit and forgot the spring rates. I'll look and get back with you.
