hi

I am installing the Eibach - Pro Lowering Springs has any one installed it and do you have any photos of it or some helpful hints.

I don't know if that helps you but you can have an idea of the suspension fitting here.

*Tip*
The top spring plate has to be the right way round as the hole is not central. There should be a hole on the outer edge, this must face towards the wheel (outwards)!!

And obviously get the Geom set up after you have fitted

It's quite straight forward if your hand with a spanner.

Before you do it, make sure you got the right tools. I fitted my front springs last weekend. We will be doing the backs this weekend coming. We spent most of sat and half of Sunday trying to get the top nuts of the socks as they were a pain in the ***. The way we got around it was to weld a 19mm socket onto a long ring spanner. Then we used an Alan key with an extension bar to hold the center. The trick is to find some way of holding the center still while getting massive amounts of leverage on the top nut. You will see what i mean when you try.

E-mail me as I have pics.

Talk to you soon

IOW borrowed a similar tool from me, but his car's top nuts were different to mine

Make sure you have plenty of leverage. I needed a 4' scaffold pole

And make sure all tools are a good fit. The last thing you want to do is knock the corners off of the nut, or graunch the damper tops

It helps to crack them with the car still on the ground (or a jack under the lower suspension arm) - less load on the top nuts.
