A side-by-side comparison between the UPR drag springs and some OEM springs. What's wrong with this picture?

They going on stock struts? Looks like they are going to lower the front a good bit, I know my front is pretty low on my car with the cj springs and the M&H front runners so Id imagine id be scrapping on alot with those springs!

Yes using stock struts. This is me removing the UPR springs from my car. They lowered the front significantly and reduced weight transfer for my setup. They may be the ticket for someone else, just not right for me.

I am back to OEM springs on all 4 corners.

Try the BMR springs ... Wish I would have taken side by side pics but didn't ... They lowered by 1 1/2 inches but the spring rate makes transfer so much better on the street it's made a big difference on hooking ... Haven't been to the track yet

That's very strange. They didn't noticeably lower our big heavy pig of a vert, WITH Roush TVS blower on the nose...

I almost wonder if they were somehow mis-packaged with lowering springs. (as you know, these springs are manufactured and packaged by Eibach)

Were the rear springs different from left to right, air bag included?

I'm going to try to find something out about this right away.

Sorry about the hassle Brett.

Yes the rears were different for each side with an airbag for the right spring. Those didn't work out for my setup as I am using an anti roll bar which works best with the same rate spring on both sides.

Not a hassle, just not right for my setup. The fronts may be the mystery in it all.
