• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

people don't lower there GP's because its so damn expensive. its not like we drive Honda's and every part is cheap lol

ur joking right? people dont lower because theyre afraid of adding budget. springs are 200, but what if shocks are gonna go? what if mounts are gonna go? well, theyre gonna go eventually anyways. $200 for springs is nothing, considering half the people here spend 600 bucks on a hood.
 


200 for springs then struts, and coil overs is a different story. i will be lowering my car this summer and some people don't have the tools or knowledge to install springs.
 
tools? a wrench set and spring compressor which is what, 20 bucks from walmart, then return it? theres a will theres a way.

w-body is a dirt cheap platform.
 
buy all new parts, have a front end shop build your struts, the safe way, wont cost much i had my strut mounts changed for 15 a side, so maybe 20 a strut? that was just bring them my struts and new mounts.
 


if you can change your oil you can change struts. srsly, 5 bolts not counting taking the wheels off, spring compressor to compress the spring and one nut. reassemble, put it back on the car.

and im running ssc's. a bit rough, but not bad. agx shocks because i bought the whole struts assembled of a member. used. still had to change strut mounts.
 
how low did you drop from that set up and did you do shorter dog bones? yours sits very nice that's how i want mine to look
and yes struts are a pretty easy job
 


I have no idea my exact drop. No shorter dog bones because i run headers. Also I'm on 50k miles on my stock struts with the springs, 160k miles on the struts total. No issues.

but no shorter dog bones didn't cause any vibration either it rides fine?

You'll always get vibrations with a lowered car. I really don't notice it much anymore because I run all poly mounts and my car is cammed so it vibrates all the time as it is. I got used to it.
