Default 993 Bilsteins and H&R's for trade

I know most of you think I'm nuts, but I don't like the lowered effect of the Bilsteins and H&R's I just put on my 993. I'll trade these for an original set up if it's in good condition. I think my mechanic may have kept the orig. springs, but I need the new shocks at the least. Contact me at cbecker@tuxedopartners.com.

Hello, I am interested. I will send you a pm to get the details on what you have.

I hope these are the bilstein HD shocks.

Edit....Now I see you are wanting to trade...

If you don't like the ride height, you should be able to adjust them higher.

I am about to change to PSS10 so if you are in no hurry, I can send you my original set-up at no charge. No trade needed so you may change your mind yet again Let me know

If the lowering issue is due to a driveway or other sort of issue, I can see why you might be concerned.

Or are you not liking that it's a bit stiffer on city streets? I'd try living with it for a while before you go back to stock. The handling is so much improved with the new set up you have, and is really worth any 'inconveniences' imho.

(the stock USA height was due to DOT import regulations re: bumper height)

Absolutely! Install either US stock springs or maybe ROW M030 ones and you'll be set.
