spring help.....

[carrddine]

Can you guys give me some suggestions on finding some springs to lower my car from factory height? I want to lower the car about 1" someone suggested eibach but did not mention part# or size ?????? was also curious about what you guys can tell me about drag springs will they lower the car?how will they affect handling? I will also be adding airbags to the car at the same time as the springs......thanks for the help....

I'm running the Moog 5660 springs in front. With the SC&C stage 2 package it sits pretty low. If you want I can get you actual measurements on ride height. The car sat slightly higher before the stage 2, but was still lower than stock.

For rears, I'm running the G-body cargo coils, which seemed to be about stock height. If you wanted to set the rear height to fit your needs you could always pick up an f-body spring isolator and set of rear cargo coils, then trim them to desired height.

I have MOOG replacement springs in the front and rear for a 80's El Camino. Dont know part numbers though. Mine is about 1 inch lower front and back

Tim:
Eibach has 2 different lowering sets for our cars, 1: about an inch lower, and 2: about 2.5" lower, and the 2.5 is generally considered too much. Shox.com is located right by you guys, maybe El Cajon, or somewhere right around the S.D. area. There are a lot of threads on TBS.com and here on this subject. Might pay to do your homework on this. I lowered 1 of my turbo Buick cars and did not like it. HTH
