how long does it last until i get me some kyb agx shocks.(because i got that gc set up)

i want to put them up for now with the stock ones until i get some shocks with in the next month or 2. will they last by then??
also ima go like 2.5-3

do i need to get struts also? or no? does the shock ride like a strut? idkkk

 

what the hell language are you speaking?

i have no idea what you're even asking

if you're going to put ground controls on stock struts how long they live depends on the spring rate and how much you lower it. what rates do you have and approximately how low were you going to go? stock shocks can go down 1" or so without a lot of trouble provided the rates are tame

 

He also posted this in the 92-00 civic section, and didn't make sence either.

 

If I understand it correctly, I'm going to reply that you may as well just wait until you can afford a good suspension setup instead of doing it halfway. Just ride on stock components until you can swap out both the shocks and the springs. That way you have absolutely no risk of stiff springs killing your shocks. Just my 2 cents.

Edit: And about the final question, if you do have a 92-00 Civic, it has double wishbone suspension, which means it has shocks and not struts. They aren't interchangeable.

 

i agree please do not half *** it

 

Wait to put everything on all at once. Paying for 2 alignments sucks, and you want to align it every time you mess with ride height or suspension parts...

 

yea that was my bad and some stupid question like that.. ha.
n-e ways

wen i bought the ground control it didnt let me choose my spring rates, is there a rate that already comes with it??? if so.. what is it?

 

Those are called OTS (Off The Shelf) rates and they vary from car to car. Depending what car you have, they're probably in the 250-350 range, probably softer in the rear for ride comfort. I don't own Ground Controls (yet...just wait...) but I believe that spring rate information is on the spring. If it comes down to it, call GC.

 

koo. i have a 94 eg dx hatch.. with those rates can i go low as 3inches?

 

^ NO... A 3" drop on stock shocks is retarded. A 3" drop with standard GC rate springs is also retarded. Wait to do the drop until you get shocks, then after buying those KYB AGX's you can blow them out with your 3" drop. Sorry if I sound mean... Im just stating the obvious.

 

its koo, i want sum honest questions like that..
so how low can i go? any suggestionS?(with the kyb agx)
