    FS: no name springs for the BG protege or EGT escort

    I ran these for a while, it lowers the car ALOT, they are coil springs, made for narrow perches, but i used them on my Escort ZX2 struts without problems. and the response is like night and day, compared to the soft stock ones.

    I dont know what brand they are, but if you like lowering, like 2.5 inches from stock, they make the car sit very level, its a bit bouncy, but to me, it was way more enjoyable than stock 4x4 style... and for the price, its pretty much worth a shot, the biggest pain in the ace is using a spring compressor to get the stock springs, off ur strut, BUT u can get all 4 new escort zx2 ones for $188 shipped, and than they just slip on, but u need an escort top hat part for the fronts u can find that at the local junk yard or wrecking yard.

    I'd like $40+ shipping OBO, and money order only, i sold something here on paypal 10 days ago and i'm still waiting on the payment :[

    i'll ship USPS ground with tracking.

    again, to my other buyer, about my strut tower bars, i apologize about the wait, but i've called my friend daily, and still no word on the pay pal, but i'm sure its in the process :/ but i'm not ever gonna use paypal again grrr/

    pm me if interested... they are stiff like maybe 400/400

    these are coilover springs, you cant just throw them on without the proper coilover perches.

                it is a little bit unsafe :/

                but when i had them installed, they seemed to sit on the perches evenly, and never moved, even over bumps in the road ,the only time, was when i was turning into parking lots like every now and then it would click, but never around corners or driving, idk, its up to you to make sure its not gonna like, snafu on you when you wouldnt want it to... but you can get coil perches off ebay for like $40 or something i dont know but someone here probably does, i ordered a set, and it didnt fit my zx2[s

                i dont have pics at the moment, but i'll try to find one, i have a video... my buddy does... brb
