    Hey I was wondering about lowering my GP. I wanted to go with Eibachs but on their site/3800P it says they only work on the 97-03's. I am also kinda confused on the whole strut setup. I would want to replace the struts as well and remember someone mentioning which struts are best for lower applications.

    Pretty much I am just looking for a walk through/options on lowering as I am pretty new to this stuff.

    I want to drop about 1.2-1.5". Anybody out there willing to walk me through this that would be fantastic.

    I do believe most 04's with the exception of the Comp G's will accept most things from the 03 range of products. The Comp G struts and springs you dont want to mess with really cause they are already darn good. I believe with most certainty the KYB AGXs and probably GR2's will work with the 04's. You could always check out the SSC Gen II's or even ask Will Overkill about the possibility of them fitting your 04. The SSC Gen II's will only drop about 1 1/4 to maybe 1 1/2 inches. They are not drastic by any means but will add a noticeable difference to the look of your ride. Also I do believe the SSC's are made out of Canada

    Just some thoughts for ya

    Here is there site if you cant find them anywhere else. I do believe Will Overkill sells them, or use to sell them up in Canada.

    2004+ SSC springs are a terrible drop, saggy rear end.

    We mix and match SSC springs from several different W-Body applications to get the drop you want :: Overkill Motorsports ::
