as ghetto as it is, it might keep a few more people from cutting their springs.

what rides the same? cut springs? its not the ride people should be worried about its the topic of safety that has already been beaten to death

is that eaven safe, it looks like you could be on the freeway and one side would pop off and throw the car off balance and who knows what would happen next. nuts alwawy loosen them selves after a while when they are moving alot. thats just my opinion on the whole thing.

Evidently, you have never heard the Eighth Commandment of Import Modification: "8. Thou shalt not buy cheap no-name speed parts available on Ebay; for such parts will generally not work well and shall turn thy car into a hoopty ghetto-mobile; for the people selling them are foolish and wicked; for righteous car enthusiasts shall mock thee; so sayeth the LORD."

they sell similar products on summitracing and i read on a message board that someone actually used these on their mr2..and worked with no problems at all....please tell me this isn't true...otherwise i wasted around $70 on protege springs.

OK im confused...how do those things lower your car?

mx3man83 · Post by **mx3man83** » December 31st, 2002, 1:13 am

ahhh nevermind..i just figured it out....hhmmmm do you all think there would be room for that crap? When i was using spring compressors to get my stock springs off it was hard enough finding room in there....

they lower your car by clamping the springs down closer together, the tighter you make them the lower the car, someone i know bought a set of spring clamps close to those form canadian tire and his have never came off and he said the ride hasnt changed much.

bwahahahahahahahahaha....i had the same things on my hoop-de 1st gen crx....but i used them to raise the back end, the old suspension made the stock 14s rub on bumps. g-h-e-t-t-o!!! and yes, they rode like crap.
