*Ground Control Question Please Help*
Wednesday, March 30, 2005 9:08 AM
Okay I have been searching and searching and I even tried calling ground control but I get an answering machine that takes no messages.

My questions is as follows:

I bought my ground controls about 3 years ago and I put them on my stock struts and shocks. ( I know its stupid, but I only drive my car in the summer, 97z24 with 51,000miles) I want to up grade to koni's red or yellow but when I went on the GC website it has 3 different coilovers for the cavalier/sunfire. One is for stock struts(what I bought 3 yrs ago) and the other 2 are for aftermarket struts/shocks. Im wondering what is the difference between the coilovers and can I put my GC on aftermarket struts/shocks. Im pretty sure I can but I want to make sure. I really do not want to buy new GC's so please let me know thanks!

My JBO crew!!!

you will need a new ring for the inside of the rear sleeve. There are 3 different kinds because of the 3 different strut diameters. Just give them a call again and tell them you are upgrading the struts and need the ring for the rears. They will send one out to you.

Sweet! thanks so much! So the sleeve (red cup like item) is the same on all GC coilovers? Thanks for the info so the inside of the back is the only difference. Thanks

Yep. Ground Control ensures that their stuff fits correctly so they fine tune them to fit the various struts they're likely to be installed on them.

Even if the struts can't handle them, at least they'll fit properly.
