Hey guys...just need some questions answered about the struts and shocks...I order the struts and shocks and went to put my dropzone coilovers on but they wouldnt fit all the way down the struts or the shocks...was wondering if u had to remove the silver ring pieces on the kybs or do they just not fit on them...Thanks in advance....

Those Dropzone coilovers you have are crap and more than likely don't fit your cavalier. You need to either re-sell them or throw them away and invest in either some straight springs like Eibachs or a nice coilover set.

There are tons and tons of threads about those coilovers if you want to read about it yourself...

I could go on forever...

Basically, you get what you pay for...you cheap it out with your suspension and you will get a cheap-no good suspension. It's best that we tell you this now before you drive around on them and actually damage the rest of your suspension setup.

If you have questions on what suspension setup to look for, we would be glad to answer that for you.

there should be, however since you bought crappy coilovers, they say sit em on the spring seats which isnt what your supposed to do, hence the reason alot of the noises and crap occurs, not to mention they dont come with all the parts for a correct install.

You're missing parts, and they were not designed to fit our struts. That is why you are having problems. You can force them on if you wish. But I would trow them away (or sell them).

Read the FAQ.

You can buy a set of Eibach Pro-Kits or Sportlines from Ebay...just look for a legit place.

my goldlines work great with the same struts but they void the warranty. .25 more than they warranty is for but they work great and the car out handles a lot.
