Default just bought stance GR+! do i need anything else?

hey guys, pretty much i just bought the stance GR+ coilovers and im looking at the rear setup right now and i know im going to be getting rid of the purch...do i need to buy any other parts to do this? or is it pretty much bolt up and drive away like any other coilover setup?

iv never done coils on a car with a rear spring purch haha

I'm not quite understanding what your question is. What is rear spring purch?

If you buy the full set of coils, then you should have front and rear setup. Either they are true or oem style.

I'd advise taking them to professional if you are not mechanically inclined.

hahaa, im very mechanically inclined haha...i have alot of experiance in the garage to say the least...the rear springs sit on a purch...with a true coil over system it has the spring around the shock instead of on that "purch"...my question is, what do i do with the usless purch once i install the coilover??

is it just something that chills there usless?

You could either leave leave the spring bucket there OR you can purchase a toe arm to replace it. I have a set of BRAND NEW IN BOX Stance rear toe and camber arms. If you're interested PM me.

I know guys that removed this "useless" perch thinking it was just a bracket for the spring.

I've got the same coils! Treating me very well to this day! (had them about a year and some change now...)

Enjoy!

Check the suspension fs thread. One guy is selling the Kinetix rear camber/traction arm for $175 shipped.

Here's the link. Not sure if he still has them.
