    hello, fellow tsikoteers. I just bought a 2nd hand honda civic 96. lowered sya. ok sana ang lowered pero hindi practical sakin kasi mataas ang mga humps sa lugar namin. Several times na sumasayad lower lip ang bumper sa humps.

    My question is, what should I replace to bring back its original/stock height? also how much will it cost? Thanks. lso how much will it cost? Thanks.

    Kung putol ang springs, kuha ka lang ng surplus units make sure stock height yon. Kung naka aftermarket lowering springs, swap mo then benta mo yung springs.

    ^^ +1 bili na lang ng stock springs balik yan sa normal height. nakalowering springs ba yung oto? if so try to contact the seller again baka natago niya pa yung stock springs. if not just buy orig civic springs.

    aside from what was said in the previous posts, you can also get surplus/used stock springs in banawe/evangelista.

    or you could look around sa mga classifieds (dito sa tsikot or sa HCP).

    yup. kung ok pa naman shocks mo, hwag muna.
    aside from leaks, you may test condition of your shocks using the "bounce" method.

    you can buy brand new stock replacement springs if you like. sure ka ok pa since brand new.

    that's the simplest solution.
