Having only had a 4 wheel alignment done a week ago i have found out today that my drivers side rear spring has snapped (i have removed the top 1/3).
Now i now what the bang was when i reversed off the drive on Monday, this should be the perfect opportunity to fit the pro kit but i already really struggle to get her off the drive without catching the black stuff :mad: and think the eibachs will make it worse.
The car is now booked in at my local Indy and he advises me that the new OEM springs are much better and no longer reduce in sectional size as they get to the top mount :confused: .
After having the new springs fitted will i need to get a full geometry set up again? if so should this be done at the same time or wait for xxx miles and let them settle and then it done?
Thanks
Kev

Hi Kev

usually we'd suggest customer to get the alignment done whenever they change springs/adjust suspension components. usually within the 1st 100 miles or so.
