I got a quick stupid question lol. The shocks and struts on my 00 GT are shot, pepboys told me i need both new shocks and struts. I bought my car lowered and it looks sexy, but if i put new shocks and struts on it will it alter the height of the car? I'm pretty sure its the srpings that do that, but I was just makin sure....thanks for the help

That's correct, the springs determine your ride height. My advise on dampeners is to do some searches on here and stay away from anything stock or similar as you need a good quality replacement since your car is lowered.

I love my Bilsteins. If you can't afford them new, just keep checking eBay and they'll eventually pop up. That's what I did
