Default RCA Blocks!

So I have gotten tired of waiting for the lowering springs, I'm wondering if the RCA aluminum blacks would work with the 4GS. Has anyone done this yet or would I be the first.

That's what I'm wondering since there is a new setup.

Lowering your car with blocks? What springs are you waiting for?

Yes RCA blocks lift the control arm and help lower the car it's been done on the 3GS. F-Sports or something that works with the AWD system.

Yeah I had got a set for my 3Gen but never installed them. Thing been in garage for almost three years. Its more popular with the 2Gen guys but a few had used the fronts RCA's on the 3Gen's.

Here is a quick read on a 3Gen install
