safewill05 Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I'm a step closer from buying the Eibach springs but still don't know how to manage the rear sagging with those springs on a wagon, any idea? By the way, I will put new original struts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_j Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 for sagging ppl use spacers/saggy butt shims. if you search you find threads on it, google paranoid fabrications, he sells them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneskiian Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 They don't sag much. I'm using a 1/4" shim and it's an even stance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBlack-V Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 They don't sag much. I'm using a 1/4" shim and it's an even stance. I am on Cobbs and I also have the 1/4" spacers and its pretty even also. I was 0. And I'm still a zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EstateSleeper Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I just put Eibach's on my wagon yesterday....Left the stock struts. I don't think it dropped as much as they claim. It looks to me like it dropped about 1/2" to 3/4" evenly front and back. I bought 1/4" saggy butt spacers and decided to leave them off just to see what it looked like. I think they're staying off for now. They drive great though, not too harsh over bumps but much flatter through corners. Definitely happy with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
