Nice to hear from you! Did not have much hope to hear from you here again.

Definitely sounds like you may need to swap out the rear springs for their newer green ones. I've heard nothing, but good things about the new Ironman suspension.
Won´t go with Ironman again, even I´ve only heard good things about the new, green springs as well.
Might try to get Eibach to build me some custom springs. Advantage of being German lol
What makes me curious is the fact that the rear suspension did "okay" whith the foamcell/Ironman springs, since installing the rads there have been two or three times where loud noises came from the back when suspension did a nearly full cycle, since than silence.
Going to check if the shocks are still intact, if not i´d be very dissapointed as I did not race them hard or anything.
Regarding the springs, I had the car packed over the week, the "heavy duty" springs are definitely dead now as they sagged down to nearly binding, with just ~ 450 lbs in the back, including the Sparetire.
In conclusion: I might have damaged my new shocks through worn out crap springs and might need to change/rebuild both
Another question: Do our rear upper control arms bind up slightly at the "pocket" around the ball joint? or is it a european problem, since "code pathfinder" found out that at least our rear spring holding arms are build a tad sturdier?
P.S. I love this board, really great people around here.
