Bob D Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Well, I'll bet you're going to hear from members that have used both Arnott, and Boston. I for one have converted to Arnott, using thier kit on all four corners of my STS. I've been very impressed with thier performance for a year and a half, or 10,000+ miles of 'spirited' driving up here in the hills... '93 STS.. opened, dropped, wide...fast.

acecadillac Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I noticed that your car is lowered. What's that like and where do the springs come from. How does that changed the strut install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is, about 1.5". I used the Eibach "Pro" series. It doesn't affect the rear or front shock/strutt installation at all. It does stiffen the ride a bit (the springs). It's not as 'cushy' as it's former self, but I anticipated that.. '93 STS.. opened, dropped, wide...fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growe3 Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I replaced the shocks and struts on my 93 STS. Very nice ride now. The Arnott shock/strut are passive (no internal electrical valves). The shock/strut will plug in to the existing electrical connections and keep the computer happy. Below is a Power Point Slidesow I made when I replaced the shocks, I didn't document the struts replacement though.
