Resurrecting this thread to ask a quick question. My GK is at just over 63,000 miles on it, completely stock suspension. Will throwing Eibach’s on now quickly deteriorate the shocks for anything like that or should they be able to last 100,000+ like It’s Me Fit

My fit now has 125,000 miles on it 85,000 on original shocks and Eibach springs. Shocks have not noticeably changed.

Just bought Eibach springs myself. To access and replace the rear bump stops you have remove trim from the trunk? If so, can I get more clarification on what pieces to remove?

Fold down the seats, take out the trunk tray if applicable, then you can pull the siding off by grabbing the place where the trunk tray rests and pulling out. I have done it a dozen times and surprisingly have not broken any clips.
