Strutmasters conversion kits problems
Hello everyone want to talk about my experience with Strutmasters conversion kits on my cl500 2002
since i changed my ABC system to Coilovers till now i lost that smooth ride first of all Strutmasters kit non adjustable so your car sit on high Ride , which is sucks you goona feel rolling in high way also look so ugly , i decided to live with it the way it is after 14 months these cheap made coil over start to make creaking sound when i bought that kit i told it has lifetime warranty after contacting them they won't cover it . now for me if its goona cost me another 1000 k i will never buy that kit from strutmasters again , i'm thinking now to go back to abc system again or find something else like yellow speed conversion kit if anyone have yellow speed conversion kit please share your experience with me before i buy it thank you

There are plenty of YellowSpeed posts to search on the forum :-)
For myself, I spent less than $1000, the kit was complete and installed easily in my garage, is adjustable for both ride height and damping, and I far prefer it over the ABC system.
Some think the YellowSpeed rear springs are too soft for track use or spirited driving, but I've found them fine in my application.

2002 CL500 to CL55 conversion
I too remember something about a lifetime warranty, I called and they said they only offered a 1 year warranty. Very strange...I asked if they had fixed the ride height issues, they acted flustered, said they would have a manager call me back and just never did lol. It's a shame because if the ride height issue was sorted, the strutmasters really weren't all that bad. More stable than yellow speeds at high speed
