That is your problem right there. I'll take my $67 diagnostic fee please.




















Just messing with you on the fee. But seriously man, if you are going to upgrade your suspension atleast do some reading for you own safety and do it right. I am assuming you put those on your OEM stock struts, which i am willing to bet are blown now because of the symptoms you described. Your car has become a Giant bouncy ball driving now. Read the faq under non-performance on how to lower your car the right way. Its is EVERYTHING you need to know on how to upgrade your cars suspension. If you cannot afford to do a proper suspenion where everything works in syncronization, your at risk for an accident. If you say you cannot afford it, then you shouldn't find a cheap way out of doing somthing and by gettin those $120 or less coil overs isn't the best idea. I will admit i did the same damn thing and i am still to this day trying to replace parts i broke from riding DZ springs on OEM struts. New Wheel bearing, CV shaft joint overhall and rebuild, and a totally new suspension setup. My Dropzone spring costed me 100 bucks and 5 hrs of work to installed them. My new setup of KYB AGX, Eibach Prokit, New strut mounts, Wheel bearings, CV shaft rebuild, alignment, has ran me $1,220 bucks and around 12-15 hours of work, where it could have only ran me 700-800 for the right suspension products and the 5 hr install. Think about it. I am taking my time to try and help you fix your problem before you break other things and cause more $$ damage to your car. I highly advise you take those things off and try and get your $$ back and do it right. Read the Faq and choose your style that you want.
