Define "work."

If they fit is a question you should ask summit. If they're what you're looking for is another.

What are you looking to do? Adjusting coilover springs isn't the easiest process, and you really can't use the full 3" of travel without changing struts or bolloxing up your rebound.


I've stopped in Summit before (the Akron location) hoping to find brake pads and fluid (Pagid and ATE) since I was passing through. It's a big shipping warehouse, but they said they would have to order the parts. It seemed pretty stupid to me.

I'd give it a shot. Summit is great company and seems to stand behind their products 100%. If they don't work then getting your money back shouldn't be a problem.

What about these? http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/gc2027-01 I heard good things about Ground Control products and they say they can be used with stock shocks.

I would stay away from any brand of sleeve coil-over. Just buy the H&Rs. Those coil-over conversions are cheap but they are crap. Your best bet is the H&Rs and some Bilstein Sports. They'll give you a nice drop and you won't have the headache of those silly sleeve overs.

Ground controls are good..if you buy the complete kit not just the sleeves and springs.
