dawrenn Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 I found a used set of Ground Control coilovers on ebay. There up to $10 and go off in 4 days. Here is the description This auction is for a set of authentic Ground Control coilovers also known as Eibach springs. These are in perfect condition and will give your car a really nice look. I think its lowers around 1-4 inches which will give you a nice snug. Some sleeves are included to reduce the coilovers from rubbing with the shocks and provide you with a smooth ride. These are authentic GROUND CONTROL coilovers!! He says some sleeves. Would it effect anything if I did not have all the sleeves? is there any way I can buy them seperate? Here is a pic of the coilovers he is selling Tell me if you think anything is missing. and here is a pic of a new set of coilovers with a pic of the sleeves that he is talking about. How important are the thin rubbers sleeves or rings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawrenn Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 Do you think it is a good idea to get used coilovers or should I just get new ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawrenn Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 I was wondering what the allen screws are for in the left of this picutre? and what are the big rubber rings for? I know the other ones are to hold the threaded part onto the shocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLontheDL Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 i believe the rubber rings are to keep it from squeeking. some people have to re-oil those after so many years due to the dryness of them. im going to move this into the suspension area. you might get more help there.

dawrenn Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 I found another used set of Ground Controls on Ebay that seems less sketchy. They are up tp $10 and go off in a couple of days. Here is the description: You are bidding on a set of used Ground Control Eibach Coilovers. They were taken off a 2000 Honda Civic HB. Im pretty sure they will fit all civics. They are in great condition, just a little dusty but clean. Was only used for less than 15K miles. Please email me with any questions and please take a look at my other auctions. thanks. Tell me what you think about these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawrenn Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 I dont think they do. I had them on my other civic and they were fine. I would buy a new set but I dont have the money that is why I want a used set. I heard that there are 3 differnet kits that work with different shocks. Could I find out which kit it is by the model number on the springs? I want to make sure I buy the correct shocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
