you may have to, some do some dont. You will probably have to massage the inner fenderwell, and bend the ebrake cable.

Mine fit with no problems other then the quad shocks.I fliped them and they were still rubbing the inside lip so I just ditched em.I have read since you can flip them and remove the dust covers if you still want to use them.

you MAY have to:


1.-Flip your quadshocks
2.-Roll your fenders depending on how low is your car
3.-Roll the inner fender
4.-bent your e brake cable

if your car is not lowered,i will just worry about the shocks and e-brake cable,good luck keep us update

The offset of the wheels will determine what problems you may encounter. I put 315's on my '95 and only had to ditch the quads (they still rubbed when flipped) and bent the e-brake brackets down. Fenders were fine. Some guys have had to move the exhaust tips over a bit. Whatever you have to do, it will be worth it.

So do you just ditch the quad shocks all together... or do you replace them? My car is sitting pretty high up So I'm sure the fender lips wont nee to be rolled up.
