Swapping rear springs, should i have any problems?
I have Comptech Sport springs and i don't like how the back sits. i wanted it lower so i talked to Jake from the board and he said he would like to swap since he wants the comptech rears. I believe the H&R's are about a 1/2" more drop. Should i have any problems riding with front Comptech and rear H&R's? They are getting put on tomorrow. Thanks.

H&R OE rears are 1.25", Sports are 1.75"
So unless your swapping for OE's, your a$$ will be lower than the front. Comptech fronts are 1.5".
Comptech fronts, and H&R OE rears would be perfect. 1.5" front, 1.25" rear. That would look great. Ride quality might suffer a bit with the different spring rates, but shouldn't be all that bad.
Anyone else on this? Bueller?

here's the deal...I've been brokering this set up for a year now...the spring rates are almost identicle...10% stiffer than stock and the O.E.'s are about 1.4 when mounted fully in the staggered perch...both of you will be so happy one guy get 1.0/1.0 the other 1.5/1.4 sweet ,sweet,sweet...BTW just got the comp headers installed feels like being shot out of a cannon
I WANT PICS FROM BOTH OF YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got H&R OEs and I've driven a CL-S that had Comptechs. I don't think there's much difference at all in the spring rates between the two. I agree with typeR, I think the swap will work out well for both involved.
