I bought a set of GC sleeves from a member on here, i was excited and rushed so the result is my fault.
the spring rates are 380 and 275, thats pretty soft for our cars right?
but i was gonna try them out anyway, i started with the rears and when i slide the sleeve over my illuminas, this is what it looked like:
there is a gap of a quarter of an inch around the shock body and the sleeve.
when i contacted him about this, he said he wrapped tape around the shock body to take up the space, like this. this seems like a large amount of space to take up with tape.
the inner diameter of the sleeve is 2in and the other pair is slightly more, around 2 and a 16th of an inch in diameter.
i know when you buy them new from ground control, they come with a kit that has rubber o-rings that you put on the shock body to keep the sleeve from rotating. GC sell these but they dont list dimensions. from looking at lowes and other stores and looking online, an 0-ring with 1/4 of an inch in thickness is, i wouldnt say unheard of, but i coulding find any.
any thoughts or suggestions?
any idea what kinda of car these fit on?
here are some pictures of them:
