Default Sage RCA kit

Does anyone know where i can order the piece for my 3rd Gen GS AWD, I'm willing to try it on my AWD, if I get the wobbles, i'll just remove it, I used to be on NF's, but went back to stock springs because of wobble. I found one site online, but it was only for the 2nd Gens. Thanks in advance

^ its not about being easy its all about the material. NOT something you want to be cheap with especially with the AWD and how it reacts when lowered. OP I suggest to do this the right way.

I agree, not something you want to skimp on. Alwayz, that looks like a bunch of washers, am I correct? Actually, you could probably have a machine shop make you a set if you told them the specs and the material to use, but then again, depending on the retail price of the RCAs, it might be worth just buying from them.

Mikedozz, let us know how it goes either way. As an AWD owner, I've always wondered how these would work with the AWD wobbles.

I thought it was funny too... So far so good and I'm running on air alot more stress on the suspension. And yes some methods for modifying did evolve from Honda tunning and what not.. Don't hate if u don't know
