Goldline Springs Installed w/ Pix


This was the rear gap, stock. Loose as my ex girlfriend, am I right?


Likewise for the front.


Gettin' her ready. This is my shop. We got these new 4 post lifts, they freakin' rule.


Nother shot. Got the sticker in a few days ago too.


Goldlines installed in the rear, bumpstop cut 1" in accordance with the instructions.


New rear wheel gap. Should drop a tad bit more once they get settled.


Rear gap again.


Startin' the front.


Dissembled strut assembly


All new shocks, I like 'em.


I'll get some better pictures next time I go do a real photoshoot.

The hardest part about the entire install was the jacking procedure for the rear. None of the 3 types of jacks I had did what I wanted them to do, so I ended up just using the lift to drop the car onto the jackstands.

First impressions on the ride home: I love them. Handling is incredible, and I was extremely happy with the ride quality, it's better than stock, no joke. Extremely pleased with the Goldline product, will recommend to anyone.

Did you change the shocks, or just replace them with new stockers?

Left the the old ones on there, tbh. Soon enough I will get aftermarket ones though.

Nope, didn't feel a thing. That was one of the things I was worried about, but so far so good.
