I am very happy with the back finally. I can easily hit the bump stops in the front still however. Eibach recommended installing the Front Dust Boot BS770043 which increases front travel 10-12mm.
I need the exact part number from Energy Suspension Parts. The type E isolator is a tube. That can't be the right part. I just installed the 6399.140 springs and the rear is sagging. Please help. Thanks

Yes I used the type E tube and slipped it on the bottom of the rear springs.

Also, I removed the stock dust boot cover on the front struts this week and replaced them with the Eibach dust boot cover and picked up an extra .5 inch of suspension travel. This makes a huge difference as I am no longer hitting the front bump stops.

You bumped a thread that's been dead for 4 years to say thanks and to ask a question to a member who hasn't been active in almost a year. smh

You'd have done a lot better to save his pic and start a new thread in the wheels & tires section.

Awe I'm sorry for not being a forum nerd and noticing the date. Forgive me for wanting the information but not knowing the poster hasn't been on in a year. This forum evolves at a snails pace. I have limited time and less for this post.
