View Full Version : Its official, back2back spring installs
randode 10-01-2003, 04:32 PM Yup, I knocked out two more spring installs last night. Back2back. I'm a little tired today, but this brings my spring install total up to 7. If anyone else would like to get their springs installed, I'm available any night this week. I perform this service FREE for Team Scion West Members, and only $40 for non-members. PM or e-mail me for an appointment.

its_ikon 10-01-2003, 05:34 PM how long did the first install take you and how long does it take now? that is cool you do that on your free time.
randode 10-01-2003, 05:46 PM The first one i did (my wifes car) took about 1.5 hours. But that was taking my time, cleaning, painting, etc. Now I can do the a whole car in 35 minutes if I dont B.S.

randode 10-01-2003, 07:14 PM no problem.
subcode 10-01-2003, 08:13 PM I was wondering if you have done the drop on a XA? Which springs give the lowest drop and what was the ride like after the install?
randode 10-01-2003, 08:54 PM ive done 2 xA's. one on eibach 1.5" and the other on Spy 2". they both ride good. Spy's are lower. I reccomend Spy's
Hardhitten 11-04-2003, 01:09 AM Hey Rand have you done any goldline yet? Wondering what is better goldline or the spys.
randode 11-04-2003, 04:44 PM i havnt done any gold lines yet
subcode 11-04-2003, 06:52 PM the Gold Lines are cool too...I have had them for 2 weeks and they're smooth riders especially on my xA.... :lol:
JDMxB 11-19-2003, 01:38 AM Hey Randy...when you install springs (SPY) do you cut the bumpstops?
I ask because they are ____ing me off right now with the front higher than the rear...and I'm wondering is this the case with all the SPY setups thatyou've seen..?
Will cutting the stops lower the front more?

Cutting the bump stops has nothing to do with how the stance of your car sits when its not moving. All bumps stops do is to prevent the shaft from bottoming out on the struts. I personally cut mine just from experience with Hondas.
Cutting them gives me that little extra travel.
