I am not sure if the rears would shift as much as the fronts, never heard of this happening, but it could be possible.....

As far as I know you cannot buy the springs alone, just buy the kit, its only 20-30 $.

To all those who are going to order this fitting kit. Double check the part number with the dealer for your application. The fitting kit (04947-50030) will not fit on my 94 sc400. The correct part number is 04947-24030. That is the correct fitting kit for my car for some reason. I ordered the fitting kit for the front p/n 04947-50030. I tried installing but the clips are different sizes and they don't fit. So double check before ordering.

Sorry about that, they probably did not fit because SC400 brakes are larger than SC300, plus they might have changed the design in 97+ SC. I will edit my post.

Yea some of the earlier sc400 brakes were the same size as the smaller version of the sc300 brakes. Not sure what year the sc400 had the bigger brakes. I believe the 98+ sc300 had the bigger sc400 brakes.

I understand, is this a repetive clicking noise that increases with wheels speed. I just posted with an issue just like this in the Brakes section. Please check it out and let me know what you think.
