  • Hal suspension question?

    I want to get this system but i am unclear how the rear of my car will sit lower or same ride hight. I know the front is a coil over but will the rear still be stock ride hight?

    The link you provided goes to a page with several different shocks, struts and suspensions, even the HAL section had a lot of choices. Which product exactly were you looking at?

        I have the F series in the back, no difference in height that I could tell. The springs for that package are only for the front. I got SLP take-offs for rear springs, that raised it up a bit due to the old ones being worn out. Great shocks.

          Ride height for the rear of the car is determined by the springs, not the shocks. Stock springs + QA1/HAL = stock height, Pro-Kit + QA1/HAl = 1" drop, Eibach Drag Launch + QA1/HAL = 1/2" rise. I've run all three combinations.

            Ok see i was under the impression that the package came with rear springs as well. Can you buy just 2 coil springs from Eibach? For the rear?
