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 |

PLEASE listen to Spoke!
He knows about these cars swapping ends! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) But, seriously, doubling the spring in the back without increasing the stiffness in the front will lead to a car that is twitchy. I have 140s on my car, with a stock front sway bar, and I have had the back try to sweep out from under me under hard cornering. Its fun, sure. But I would not want to go ANY stiffer in the backwithout increasing the fronts to match. Zach |
