Ok... first I need to say that I am really cheap!

So today when I called the DMV and found out that my new tags where only going to be $33, I had smile stuck on my face. My poor car has sat for the last year and a half (semi-planed). But now its up and running with a new alternator (the book didn't say anything about needing strong language and blood). However when I put the new tires on it and lowered it to the ground, the back end is sitting really low and the tires are tucked way up into the wheel wells. I have check all of the pickup points for the rear trailing arms, and they look fine. My guess is that the stock springs have lost there oomph.

So the questions are:

Does that seem like it could be it, or is there something more I need to look at?

What springs should/could I get?

Whats involved in the undertaking of changing the springs?

I work at a large HiPerf autoshop (as a machinist, building engines) and have access to the tools and some help from the mechanics. But no one there really wants to touch a "Fuerin car".

Any help would be appreciated
