Moderators BarManBean Posted September 25, 2012 Moderators Share Posted September 25, 2012 I wouldn't pair those together. KYBs will work with the likes of Eibach Prokits (not available anymore) and maybe the Epics. -Mike Paisan Those springs are one-and-the-same from my understanding. And they are currently available through a group buy being run by m sprank (infamous performance & tuning).

And they are currently available through a group buy being run by m sprank (infamous performance & tuning). The Epics are made by eibach but aren't 100% the same. Very similar and will work on the KYBs which is why I suggested them. -Mike Paisan http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/145749898/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg http://www.whiteline.com.au/images/logos/perf1.jpg 11+ Years Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Subaru Enthusiasts.

AZP Installs Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Yea, I saw his thread. I was under the impression KYB didn't do well with lowering springs. Eibach Prokit and Epics are designed for oem struts and the KYBs are designed as oem replacements. -Mike Paisan http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/145749898/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg http://www.whiteline.com.au/images/logos/perf1.jpg 11+ Years Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Subaru Enthusiasts.

BX77 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Not Hijacking this Thread, how are the Tein Luxury Master springs (gold) with the KYB's, or are they the same as the H Tech, that everyone is talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 http://www.harborfreight.com/1-ton-arbor-press-3552.html http://www.harborfreight.com/12-ton-shop-press-33497.html Get the 20T. Far superior and still an excellent value with 20% off. For LCA bushings, you'll need to get the press and receiver tools. AVO has a set, but it's $. I have a custom machined set via family machinist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCASEYS Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 KYB paired w/ H&R springs here I donated to LegacyGT.com which allows me to have this nifty signature.

volodyalysak Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 So YES my suspension busted big time, removed LCA's yesterday, those rubber bushings inside, i could remove them with bare hands. Will take LCA's tomorrow to press out old bushings(whats left) and put new ones in. My endlinks busted as well, and CV axles too. Already replaced CV axles, and have new endlinks as well. When i was removing LCA i damaged rubber on ball joint and not sure if i need to replace it. 25 $ part, but what a PITA to remove. Hopefully i will have my car done on Tuesday, took me and my buddy 3 hours to pull LCA's (a lot of PB blaster). Will post some pictures when will be putting new parts in.

compsurge Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Snyper's ball tugger and a can of pblaster for that ball joint - be sure to get a few extra washers as well. Don't be afraid to manhandle it. I made sure to anti-seize the new one. It IS the PITA everyone says it is, but it's a lot cheaper to fix yourself.
