Eibach springs and sways

[Rango]

O,Hara had a down lift!
GT2 AWD

No harsh ride at all ... 95% like stock. Bad lean in spirited corners are history.

Best of all, her azz end doesn't float crosswise over the smallest of bumps like before she had her Eibach makeover!

Eibach springs should have been OEM.

I highly reccommed the Eibach Pro kit! Springs and F/B sways.

P.S. Got rid of the rainguards

Any rattles from swaybars on rough roads?

Body roll is my main complaint about this car. I was quoted $200 to install front and rear sways...did you install them yourself?

Had springs and sways installed at the dealership. One dealership quoted $1100!!! HA! Called the other dealership and had all installed for $420!

Where are you located? I have some of the harshest roads on the planet and am fated to drive over them almost daily. Terrible heaves, cracks, potholes, etc. Thanks and glad you're delighted!

I did the front sway on ramps without removing the wheels. Front is super easy. Still waiting on my back ordered rear sway. Hardest part is holding the end link with an allen while turning the nut in limited space. Gearwrench socket worked nice for that.
Anyone noticing more chassis flex after installing the sways or springs? Just with the front sway I'm noticing more flex and twist induced sunroof creaking. I do live on a bumpy road and have an off camber driveway.

This is something I was afraid of. You're the first I've heard report it, however.

I just ordered some utra racing braces which it really needed stock anyways.
Good news is sways may tighten things up enough you dont need springs unless you want the look.

Thinking about purchasing the braces also. I would reccomend getting the springs with no sways rather than the sways with no springs. Cornering performance is incredible with the springs! And with front and back sways also ... that much better! I got the Eibach Pro kit and really do not notice anymore cage flex. No squeaks in my GT2 ... right now. But over time ... the braces installed early will help prevent body flex and squeaks down the road.

Did you order all 3 braces?

 

[Tonkabob]

Did you order all 3 braces?

I did the mid rear and the rear. The front brace appeared to be bracing around an area that already had more bracing. Plus the front has the strut bar braces already. I think the flex is from our giant hatch. This is just my guess.

Thanks Tonk. Adding to my notes.

@Rango Nice review! Planning on getting this as well. And hows the alignment after the spring installed?

After install, pulled VERY, little to the right. Almost not noticable. Waiting two weeks for the springs to settle (1 more week). Then going in for full front and rear alignment.

Cool! And on what setting did you put the F/R sways? Soft or Hard?

With my springs ... definitely both soft.
