Im about to redo the stock suspension on my car that is blown. Nowdont mock me if im qwrong but what do i all need to do this right. Im wanting a lower the car very little with agx struts and shocks. I ve read forums about spacers and how the mount wonmt sit right? whats that about. I want to do this once and the right way. I plan on that 599 deal from gravana. Money is kinda a issue but not for the righ setup. Thanks guys

You should be fine with either strut mounts. All I saw you name was the shocks/struts your going to use....what kind of springs were you going to get to actually lower it?

No he's only talking about struts. Those are good struts for up to a 1.5" drop.

You need to go read the FAQ now. And I don't mean skim it. Go read it. Now.

Have you read it yet? If not, go get reading!

Gravana sells springs you can use to lower your car too. Do not use coil-overs on any KYBs. Yes I know Gravana sells GCs "for KYBs", they will instantly void the warranty.

Gravana also sells Eibach ProKit, which I highly recommend with the AGX struts you're looking at. You will be very happy with this drop as a first time project. Once you understand what's involved and what you want, you will be better equipped to make decisions.

Now about the spacers and mount not sitting right. I'm guessing you're talking about the spacer you have to use to tighten up the top nut. KYB supplys this spacer, if your AGXs don't come with them, call KYB and they will send them to you free. BTW: KYB struts alone will not drop your car at all, 0.00". Springs drop you car, which you should have read in the FAQ.

Well he was talking about lowering the car and only said getting KYB AGXs but nothing about springs, wasn't sure if he just forgot to put it in the original topic or not. He said getting something from Gravana but not sure if he was talking about buying the AGXs off of Gravana...wasn't sure...

Well The AGXs at Gravana is $550 + shipping. If he's getting the Eibach springs (Pro or Sport) they're $200 more.
