My car is bone stock from front to rear.
I am looking at 180lb progressive springs. -are these stock height? -if not what do i have to do to the front end to make the front height match the rear height? -will i need a bump steer kit? -will i need to do any other mods to make them look "right"? -being that they are "progressive" they are gonna be pretty decent for all types of driving... right? thanks steve |

I have 160 prog's
Yes, they will lower the rear. Yes, you will need to lower the front to match. Yes you will need the bump steer kit. How are the rest of the suspension components? If they are original parts, they will probably need to be renewed to reap the full benefits from the springs. Yes, the ride will be noticebly harder on the street, aaaannnnddd, yes, they will will much improve the handling of your car. |
