yes GC's can be used on other struts, but not with the best results. I've rode in a few GC equipped cars riding on stock svt struts and the other was I believe kyb's. They rode like garbage. I run Konis with my gC's and it rides nice and firm.

Where exactly do you want more ground clearance? Front and rear or just the rear? I need a little more info..I'm kinda lost excuse my lazy mind.



Thanks!

I need to raise the rear end, the front is fine and I make it over most road terrain fine.
When I load down the car with people it is a lot lower in the rear and it looks off balance. Whenthere is no load the front end is just slightly higher but it still looks ok. I guess I need about a 1/2 in the rear.
I'd take 3/4" because I know when it was loaded it would look equal height with the front. I also like the slightly raked look with the rear a 1/2" higher than the front.

The only thing I can think of is find a rubber insulator seat or maybe use some good quality hose on the bottom and top coils to gain a little more height.

Or the ground controls.

What do you think?
