[s-cars] Koni/Eibach..not level :(

Actually, the droop is associated with the Eibachs, not the H&R's.
 I was able to get the spacers from www.shox.com <http://www.shox.com>. The
price seemed a
bit exotic, considering that they're simply hollow extruded spacers that
look like 10 mm of steel tubing, but I had to consider the weight of the
the back of the car sits on it, compounded by any dynamic loads the car
goes through (gives a little more intrest to squat and roll, eh?), but they
do place the car level, and haven't failed yet. As I recall, they were $38,
and I don't recall if you can get them from TireRack (they don't carry the
UrS Eibachs). If I had the receipts handy, I would look up the part # for
you, but unfortunately, they're in storage until I fully move into my house.
Perhaps any of you other Eibach lackeys can fill in here.
