I'm going to be buying kyb agx struts all around. My main question is where to buy everything from. Also what do i need. For the struts I will be ordering them from parts geek. For lowering springs what should I do? Mounting kits and boots and stuff? Never built a strut if you couldn't tell. Lol
 


Monroe strut mounts.. SSC springs.. Reuse everything else from the factory strut.

This. If you want to just lower it a little then vogtland springs. I would replace the endlinks as well with Moog's while you are working on the struts.
 
I would also take the opportunity to change out the CA while your there depending on the condition/mileage of your current ones.

Ehh debatable.. Some guys will say the excels are just as good and last longer then then agx.. Others will argue against that. Personally I'll give the $200-250 excels a shot first and use what you would of spent on swapping out the front sway for a Dorman and some new control arms.

Sweet. Thanks. If I'm buying agx struts, you said to buy Monroe strut mounts? So I would be buying 4 mounting kits from parts geek?
 


Yup or just grab them from advance order online use coupon code and pick up in store

Then. The grand total with agx, ssc, mount kits, shorter dog bones, engine and tyranny spacers. 840. Sound about right for about 2 inches? Lol
 
No way. I can't pay $1460 for coilovers. I would love to have them but thats out of my budget. If there was a cheap way to make them myself I would.
 


There is a cheap way.. Plenty of info on this site on how to make em... Gotta do your homework and search! And **** shorter dogbones.. Do it the better way and get Vinnie spacers instead.
