ground control install...

ok guys.. i need some help here...

i purchased a set of GC coilovers used from a guy in canada who took them off for the winter and ended up totaling his car... he only had them on for a month...

the problem is that i dont have any of the info on the springs, e.g. which set goes on the front as the springs are all the same diameter with 2 diff links, and where the hell the aluminum and urethane bushings go.

now i am going to call GC and ask them some questions regarding this, but i figured i would see if anyone here has any input to help me out... cause i would like to get started on them tonight....

i have searched everywhere in these forums and the net to get this info so anything here would be a great help... as long as you're not wrong and it cause me to f*** up my suspension...

thanx

lol.. anyways..

i believe the short springs/sleeves go in the rear and the longer ones in the front. I know the metal ones go up front, urethene on rear.
The front, the sleeves should fit perfectly inside the O ring. if its too long than you know it goes in the rear but ya i'm sure its up front. the rear also should have come with this rubber tube. that goes between the shock and the sleeve to keep it in place.
