Default Few questions about KYB AGX shocks and Eibach Pro-Kit....

I ordered this combination yesterday for my 95 Prelude. What should I set the KYBs to for the closest to stock ride I can get. I'm guessing set them all to the softest setting? Also, the Pro-Kit is supposed to lower my car 1.2 in the front and 1.0 in the rear. Is this before or after the springs have settled?

For me, the pro-kit lowered more than ~1 inch. I would say more like 1.5 - it seems that a lot of people experience this. With koni yellows on the stock perch height and the pro-kit, I have about a 1/2 to 1 finger gap in back and 1 1/2 to 2 finger gap in front.

If you want the closest to stock ride set them to the softest setting. Also if you got the agx's that you adjust on the top of the strut instead of on the side memorize which color = which setting, my numbers have started to wear off already
good luck and If I can help you w/ anything on install please let me know.

Thanks for the input guys. Matt, I will be installing them in about 2 weeks so is there anything I should know going into it to look out for? Also, about how long did it take you? Thanks again

dude, I'm sorry, I just typed up all the instructions 22 steps and my computer kicked me off line. I'm a lil pissed now so I don't think I'll type all the instructions up. The first time I did it I worked on it for about 1 1/2- 2 hrs. I took my time and didn't know everything I was doing. The last time it took me 1 hr. There is nothing really to look for besides rust. Oh and make sure you have the proper struts and springs. When you get all the parts tell me. Hope this helps, if you run into probs let me know.
