I can try to snap some but what problems exactly?
It is a tight bend by the LCA but by the shifter should be easy.
I got mine done by a great fab shop in the area.

idk why you think they arent needed. they give you the ability to dump without the shocks being completely compressed. they give you 2 more inches of shock travel nd allow you to have more bumpstop. ever have your shocks bottom out? not a good feeling!

i need them bad. i running with ek koni yellows and i cant go any lower or im on bump stops. i know i know, i should get the right shocks for my car but im jobless and they were free from my bros wrecked car and only had 10k on them. i just had to trim down the rear bushings to fit them. the car is at a good stance. the tires just barely disapear under the wheel wells. but id like to go an inch lower and cant.

I know why theyre needed trust me ive had more suspension sets ups then you probably have,this is your original post:
ok so suspension question. ground control extended top hats.... can they be mated with any other coilover set up?? like f&f type II's
do you know that FF's can be slammed with out the need of extended tophats? do you know how you lower a car with those? but to answer your question yes they do fit, if you use those with FF's your gonna mess up the pre load


i need them bad. i running with ek koni yellows and i cant go any lower or im on bump stops. i know i know, i should get the right shocks for my car but im jobless and they were free from my bros wrecked car and only had 10k on them. i just had to trim down the rear bushings to fit them. the car is at a good stance. the tires just barely disapear under the wheel wells. but id like to go an inch lower and cant.
well my suggestion is getting FF's best bang for buck, you can sit the car on the ground with out bottoming out (done it) i would also suggest getting the right ones for your car since valving is different between cars ex.EK, DC/EG, DA but if you want them to last then just raise the car, save money and do it the "right" way

Here is a pic of my car with the FF's at this height it rode super smooth

friend of mine had FF Type I's on his car and he couldnt get it to the height he wanted, if i remember correctly, when the rear coilovers were raised all the way up, it was right over the tire, when the front were all the way down, it was right over the tire

now after seeing this and how your car sat with how much they ad left to go i notice that i dont need the top hats. you could have just showed me this first off and could have avoided the hatefest.
