Posted By: Mystique97 Cheapest suspension setup out there. - 07/12/06 11:33 PM
Ok, my front struts are starting to creek and groan and I was wondering if I should go get some springs and struts from Bill Jenkins or go get aftermarket suspension. I am looking for the cheapest way to do this, the BAT kit or is there anything cheaper/better then the BAT kit?
My max of lowering will be 1.5 inches. Thanks in advance.

That's what I thought and I can't go on Ebay anyways I owe them money for some ghey reason and they put my account on hold. The "fee" went up like 12 bucks in a day w/out me knowing so I'm not payin it.
Thanks.

OK. Look. My regular old Roush springs were $120, on clearance.

IIRC, a GC coilover kit is still around $400, and that's springs and collars, only.

$120 for a set of coilover springs (assuming they are decent quality) is a phenomenal price.

So, without looking at the Summit catalog, I'm nevertheless pretty sure this coilover kit does not come with struts.

I'll stick with the BAT kit.

yes no struts.. but a very cheap avenue if anyone is interested in coilovers that are made by Ping Wing Wang and bought from stupid E-bay
