JesseJames' car that had the rear end damage.

Replaced broken spoiler, got a new lift gate and bumper... just haven't put them on yet.



The car looks and drives great. But, I'll be daily driving it to and through Houston, which has terrible streets. I need about 1/4" up front.

The rear suspension is also really loud, I assume from the MikeR solid arms.

I recently ordered the "Touring" Ground Control kit, minus the shocks from Needswings. I already had the Sport Koni's installed on my car. From what I understood, the "Touring" springs were 1100 lbs. front and 850 lbs. rear, as per Donovan at Ground Control. However, the springs I received were 900 lbs. front/750 lbs. rear. Plus, the rear springs are 7 inches long, which are too long for the system and the rear sits way too high adjusted at the lowest setting. This seems to be an ongoing issue with the experience of others that shared above. Any updates on what was the fix was for those that had the rear of their cars sit too high? Also, why the variance on the spring rates with the "Touring" set? It seems to be all over the place. I'm gonna call Donovan tomorrow to see if I can get some answers and possibly switch out my springs, because I'm not too happy right now. Sorry for the rant..

Thanks for the info! I have been sitting on the sidelines waiting to see more people actually using the setup before I make the swap. I want to make sure that if I go that route, I only have to do it once.

Good luck!

I wonder what that view looks like now.
I hope Les came through the storm relatively unscathed.

So did anyone with a the rear ride height problem (too high) solved their problems?

I want to buy this kit for the ajustability and I want to lower the rear mostly. The front is fine but I'm sure this kit will lower it as well.

Did this ever happen?
