Yes, they are just like real coilovers, built on thread over the strut body with adjusting nut to raise and lower the car.

The height from 1 1/2 drop would be another 1 to 1 1/2 with the shortened ride height adjustable struts.

Yes the price for a complete set is 599.00

Decamo has a little shameless behaviour in the past

If these struts lower the car by lowering the spring mounts doesn't that 'cause the spring rate to be way too soft at lowered height? What prevents it from bottoming out and riding on the bump stops?

Hey Rob, are you going to sell them? IF so how much? Do you think they are better than KOnis?

Hey Strutwizard how much for the rear only and what kind of warranty do they have? Will they work with the ground control coilovers I already have? Do you have a website. How do I order them and will you accept Visa.

Do to the fact that the strut are shortened and the piston also, the spring maintains the required compression to work like the factory set up as far as bottoming out on the bump stops.

Its not required to use the ground control set up because the struts already have the adjusting sleeve and nut on them.

thanks

The outside of the body is factory, but the internals are not the same when I finish with them. Disc changes and different types of oils are used.
