I dont see why not, then again why would any one want srt eibach springs? They have the worst ride and then some.

If they are the stock SRT springs I think they will work, I know of guys that have done it. If they are eibachs, your friend will need adjustable ball joints up front.

It's not something you just throw on, you need additional equipment. That's all I know about it. I think robpp was the one that tried it.

I wouldn't do that to a friend.....maybe a mother in law.

^ LOL! Funny guy. The Eibachs aren't that bad. Sure they bottom out but if you're on a highway or freshly paved road they are nice. However, if you're on NYC-like roads, you will hate them.

They should NOT work. Spring rates are different from a V6 to a V8, due to weight differences. The V6 is gonna sit higher without the weight of a V8 and will probably bounce around quite a bit.

SRT springs will not work on a non SRT WK....V6 or V8. Thye will bolt up/fit....but the SRT has shorter high pressure shocks/struts whereas the non SRT doesnt. The SRT springs...eibachs or others wil pull the non-SRT WK's suspension down completely on the bump stops. There would be NO suspension travel at all. To add an SRT spring of any kind....you need the SRT Bilsteins and endlinks
