shocks, struts, springs
Should I get the tokico shocks, struts, and springs from ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOKIC...temZ8061817472
or should I just get some eibachs? Would my longtubes rub the ground with the sportlines or should I go with the prokit?

RE: shocks, struts, springs
i put the pro kit on and i have m/l bassani headers, they only scrape over speedos. I didnt change out my shocks at the time of lowering, i have illuminas to put on. I get horrendous clunking and squeaking outta the rear end now, you can really hear it,even outside of the car. Not sure what to do to fix it? upper and lower control arms with the new shocks? can never seem to get an answer about it.

Where is squeaking coming from. is it fromt eh rubber bushings on the CA'a? Is it the shocks, or something completely different. Have one of your buddies push on the back of your car while you are underneath it (be careful while doing this) and listen to where the sound is coming from. If it is the shocks replace them since you already have the Tokico Illuminas to replace them with. If it is the bushings on the control arms you cn replace the control arms or just the bushings. If it is something else just make a new post of exactly what is squeaking and maybe even take a pic of it and get some suggestions. No one cn tell you where the sound is coming from or what is squeaking over the internet, this is prolly why you get no good answers.

i was thinking about doing control arms at the same time and hopefully everything mysteriously works out. I will try and see where it gets me. any suggestions for the brand of upr/lwr control arms?
