springs

But when you install those springs be ready to have your driveshaft
rub on your parking brake under your car.

Also dont forget shocks/struts to handle that drop. Intrax also makes springs that drop 2" I believe, but I've heard a lot of bad things about them. If you want that much of a drop go with sportlines. You could also consider H&R Supersport springs.

2in will hurt handdling so it would be for looks only??? you may feel less roll and more stablitiy but the edge will be at lower speeds and your front end will plow more then normal....now if you want a 2in drop and handling you'll need new ball joints and A-arms...possible k-member.

better than I expected. I expect quality to improve even more once I get my bilstein shocks and struts, as i am still running the stock s/s with 85k miles on them

Where did you get your C springs? And did you use the isolators? Thanks.

I purchased my c-springs from an individual who had them on his car for less than 100 miles. I am not currently running isolators, when I purchase and install the bilstein shocks and struts, I am going to run urethane isolators similar to those found on www.maximummotorsports.com
