Cheap ebay Lowering Springs

Chuck33079 · 07-28-2013, 07:32 PM

OP, go to the classifieds and buy a set of used name brand springs. I'd explain why you shouldn't use the eBay ones, but to be honest, "$80 eBay springs" should tell you everything you need to know.

But they are "Speed Daddy's"!!!
The below statement is actually listed on one of the sellers other ad's which shows EXACTLY the same springs, with a different image background and different price:

"If item is questionable, please consult your local professional/mechanic before making purchase."

Amen to that!

They can't be worse than Megan Racing suspension products. Go for it!!! It's only 80$.

Good Luck!

Lol the spring rates are half of OEM. That should be a 1995 Chysler New Yorker ride right there! Very comfortable and like floating on a cloud. Enough body roll to scrape the doors in a turn, but very comfortable!

I have never known anyone who ran ebay cheapo springs

Probably not a good idea since quality springs aren't that expensive anyway
