A set of Eibach rear springs arrived today and I hope to get them in this week. A couple picts beside a set of stock T5 springs. Anyone have a profile picture of these on a V70 FWD?Just a little shorter than stock:

more parts!
Going through VADIS, it looks like I'm going to need some more parts:
9461524 - Support plate
3546435 - Spring anchorageI did notice the top bolt diameter for the Nivomat shock is larger so the hole coming through the mount on the non-Nivomat mounts must be smaller.

Thanks Adam, that height looks just right.
Are you running OEM rear shocks or something else?

hmm - do you have any full profile shots? I didn't see any on your signature link.
It looks like your rear is slightly tucked where Adam's looks a tad higher. I'm wondering if the FSDs are dropping it a 1/2" or so.

Actually I don't believe that I do, however I'll have the opportunity to take some this week end, and can post it up Sunday night if you can stand the wait.

Re: Any picts of Eibachs on a V70?
This is Nick's former T5 with H&R and Koni Sports:
My T5 with weak rear OEM springs and worn Nivomats.
I am hoping the Eibachs are close to the same height as the H&R but the picts of yours with Eibach & FSDs has me thinking I'll end up a little lower than I am shooting for.
