Dear Dennis,

I was dealing with you recently and was fully satisfied (see my feedback in the Forum). I am asking here for your advice/opinion.

I bought from e-bay an EIBACH Pro-Kit of lowering/performance springs.
The seller says "all 4 springs" - I received only the 2 Front ones...
In the MM.net forum, I saw that everybody refers to FRONT springs.
My question : do EIBACH REAR front springs exist ?

Thanks in advance for your helping & answering,
Best regards,
JP

The rear springs in your Marauder are air bags. The Eibach kit only comes with front springs because that's all you need. Install the fronts and then adjust the rear ride height sensor in order to lower the rear. Then get it aligned and you're done.

I had seen the same ad on eBay and I thought the same thing for a sec.... it was just a typo on the seller's part.

JP I am not a big fan of these on the front they make for a harsh ride and throw the alignment out of a adjustable spec

I want to lower the car about 3/4" to 1". What springs would be reccomended for this? Should I just leave it alone?

I had the Eibachs in my Marauder. I personally liked them. The ride was a little bit more bumpy, but the look it gave was sweet. I left the back the stock height and it gave it an awesome "rake". I recieved alot of compliments on it. I had different alignment specs put in and I NEVER had an issue with any uneven wearing. So unless a more firm, kind of bumpy ride bothers you, then Id say get them.

I understand the desire to lower the car but the Marauder alignment spec are tight and if you do it will throw the car out, and can put it out of a adjustable spec, one of the big complaints is the inability to rotate the tires front to rear on this car, so its your call, you can do Eibach but they come with a price

I would leave this one alone.
The car has back tires in the front which greatly improves handling, the ride and takes up all the ugly slack in the fender.

245/55/18 up front, 255/55/18 out back.
Awesome combo.

I cut 1 Full Coil off of my Front Springs. It lowered the car about 3/4", and lowered the Rear Air Bags accordingly. The ride is MUCH better, and not nearly as harsh as the Eibachs.

I would NOT cut off more than 1 Full Coil though.
