Holla Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 The KYB’s sounds like a good choice for you then. I have the same problem with shit roads in WI and winter. This was originally designed as my winter setup but it’s taken over full time and I have no plans of switching. It’s pretty easy to swap the rear springs but you’ll need a spring compressor to get the stock springs back on. I also always use oem bushings. I’ve had poly bushings on past cars and they get super stiff and squeaky in the winter. OEM’s are just easier to deal with on a street car.

SubOperator Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I also always use oem bushings. I’ve had poly bushings on past cars and they get super stiff and squeaky in the winter. OEM’s are just easier to deal with on a street car. So much this. Had WL poly for few years on front LCAs and when time came switched to stock STI LCA bushings. Same controlled ride as with WLs without any stiffness. 2005 LGT Wagon Limited 6 MT RBP Stage 2 - 248K 2007 B9 Tribeca Limited DGM - 258K SOLD - 2005 OB Limited 5 MT Silver - 245K SOLD - 2010 OB 6 MT Silver - 205K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastsvx19 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Pinks and JDM struts is the answer. I agree. I have JDM SIT Pinks on KYB SR's from Japan. Also - If you are "bouncing", this is rarely from a good strut/spring setup. Get the spacers as recommended and a possible cutting of the LGT bump stops. And make sure that alignment is on point!
