how much would adjustable shocks lower the rear?

[yellowstang1994]

Hi guys,

I have my car lowered with a eibach pro kit. I think it still sits a little high in the back. I was thinking about upgrading my tokico's in the back to the 5-way adjustables. Would any of the settings on the shocks lower my car in the back at all? Or would I have to change the springs out to something different. Sorry if this is a stupid question. I just wanted it lowered in the back like maybe a 1/4-1/2in more. What do you guys think?

adjustable shocks adjust the stiffness and softness of the rebound of the shock.
it will not lower it any.

Bosko's got ya covered.

Watch for tire sidewall rubbing if you drop it more (obviously depending upon how far out your tires/wheels sit).

Good luck.

could you guys recommend me a pair of springs in the back for what i'm trying to accomplish? Or would you just get a whole new lowering kit? I mean i'm content with where the front is now.

GET ADJUSTABLE LOWER control arms, they will lower or raise the rear an inch or so, or you could remove the lower spring isolator from the spring perch, the upper isolator would lower more but you will get some noise in the cabin, as for a spring, if you could find just the rears, the progress springs lower it nicely.
