    coil over and springs on e-bay

    How good are the springs and coil overs, that I am seeing on E-Bay. Have a 1991 escort Gt and thinking of buying some zx2 shocks. Any ideas on springs????

    they are cheap crap, but if your not racing, they work. The main problem is they never have the proper spring rates, and are usually way to stiff for any strut to handle.

      *sigh*

      springs are springs... nothing magical to them... the actual spring rates on the cheapo ebay stuff is 450F/350R... which is too stiff for any shock available for the the protege... but other than that - they are no different (in build) from any other more expensive producer (read: won't break.. even after harsher then daily driving conditions).

          Make sure if you use the zx2 struts you get the ones for the sr version. They have a shorter strut rod and a little stiffer.
