I did it rides excellent, some increase in rate. I am sending a set to a friend...the real issue is will it stay in the spring seat at the front not so much at the rear especially; the rear eibachs have dead coils that keep the spring in place when the wheel drops all the way down, i just tie wrapped the rear spring to the spring seat/bump rubber and tied that off to the spring perch to prevent fall out when jacking....
