Default Anyone use Global West rear ride height kit?

I want to move the rear of my T/A up 3/4-1" or so, and currently have Eibach Prokit springs. Global West makes a rear height ride adjustment kit, but I need to know the inside diameter of my rear springs.
Anyone got this kit with Eibach prokit?

Here's the product, about halfway down the page.

I use the Ground Control rear ride height adjustment kit, but I'm pretty sure the Global West kit uses the same springs. I could fit my stock springs on the mounts GC provides, but the car would sit WAY high. I'd guess it adds about 1.5" to the ride height the springs would have with no adjusters beneath them.

I got my adjusters from Ground Control directly BTW. They were only $50 since I already had springs.

Yeah, that's Global West; not Ground Control.

Btw, I called and the girl who answered the phone said I needed to speak to a technician and that they wouldn't be back until Monday. They're at the SEMA show.

Also, I see the "without springs" kit for $199. 94bird...How'd you get 'em for $50?

So the Global West rear ride height adjustment kit is $236.99, and the Ground Control kit is $54.99? What's the difference?
