i would never pay 90bucks for a alignment! more like 70ucks if not 50bucks if i can find a coupon[8D]
i might try to get my own like gig built up maybe after i get it aligned... MAYBE something so i could try to do it myself to get it really close at least. shouldnt be to tuff if i can find some points to go off from.... but then again ill only be changing my ride height twice a year. once for spring and once for winter.
haha, that's one thing that i've never paid for and never will, been doing my own alignments my whole life.

im talking to GC to see if they got something that might give alittle more lift to the coilovers.... i like the drop! but ill probably never have it really that low as it can go... but id like to have more lift for the winter so i can clear snow more... i hope they have a good idea thats not to much more $$!
longer springs
just found out after emailing back and forth GC the springs i got is for a 88-91 they are a shorter spring. so i need to order new springs now so i can adjust the suspension for winter driving.... sucks BUT as long as i buy the parts now i wont need to swap the springs will at least fall. o well i guess. new springs here i come. now i got extra sleeves and springs.
used was DEFINATLY NOT the way to go for me!
i wonder if i can sell the springs alone.... guess they probably would fit on regular cheap coilovers. quess someone might light that upgrade in spring quality and ride.... they are not a problem as long as they dont want to lift the suspension as high as i do..

well GC guy said my rears are correct, but the front springs are shorter.. he said i should just go to the top clip on the struts.


and ive already rolled my rear fender lips so its not a big deal in the rear at alll. ill try moving the clip on the rear struts and see how much that lifts it up.
the konis have 3 clip locations on the rear struts, they are in the middle slot right now.
