Re: where to buy 18k replacement springs??
Eibach would be a good start. 18kg/mm = 1000lb/in. You'll need to find out what your current length and inside diameter of the springs are. I'm guessing 7" with a 2.5" ID.
Not sure your KYBs are going to be able to hang with 1000lb springs though.

Why???? those spring rates wont work with the shocks you have ... its a failure waiting to happen.
If you are soooo set on getting a set, start looking up the spring manufacturers.
Eibach
Hypercoil
Swift

We are a Hyperco and Swift distributor. We have those rates in stock, what length?
Just PM us for a quote. As some have already stated those dampers were never made to handle these rates.

It provides stress on the seal system especially on oem style shocks. The sealing units in an oem system compared to our machined monotube shocks are quite different.
The shocks ability to control that amount of energy poses risk to the internals of the oem shock.
