#2746, "need help with new springs"


          

im putting progress springs on my car. im expecting around an inch and a half drop. is this a fair assumption? are these decent springs for $90?
now for technical info, what else will i need besides the springs, the 15 dollar camber mod and a trip to discount tires to re allign my car?

thanks in advance,

thomas

Hey Thomas I never did get that $15 dollar kit to align my front end and it drives straight as an arrow after a proper aligment. you may want to invest in new shocks/struts if you still have stock one cause your stock shocks may bottom out.

the progress (which are rated at 1.75) will settle to 2" even, at least mine did...if your shocks are good they wont bottom out on 2 inches drop, i had those progress on my car for over 2 years on stock struts and never bottomed out until i put the progress springs on collars and slammed it another 3 inches)
