Trying to get the perfect stance... help/ideas

[fox racer]

I have the Eibach Launch kit, lakewood 70/30s and 50/50s, Southside Machine LCAs, and Aluminum heads on my car. As the car sits now, the front is just too high. the car doesnt really sit on its ass, the rear height is actually perfect. I just need to find a way to lower my front like 1-1.5 inches. I currently have Poly spring iso's in the front and only the upper stock spring iso's in the back. Is cutting one coil out of the question? A buddy of mine is refusing to let me do it lol. Then I considered coil overs, but then I run into noise, price and driveability problems. So what can I do to lower the front a little bit? Im planning on a fiberglass hood and relocating my battery so i need to solve this, s its only gunna make matters worse.

If you still have the stock front isolators, and they haven't turned to dust, put em back in.

I got the same problem , I was thinking of cutting one coil off the fronts. I've read somewhere that some drag springs like to have one or two coils cuttoff after they've broken in some, but i don't know if the eibacks are like that or not.


All i know is it really irritates me when i see my car sitting on level ground and the front is higher than the rear.

I'd opt for a set of Eibach Pro kit 1 1/2 drop( progressive). On my cobra 17" wheels it fits the fender like a glove. No space. Car sits nicely on all fours. You will definitely need a caster/camber kit. Try maximum motorsports for $189. You will also need off set rack bushings( aluminum) since this will change the geometry of the stock suspension. Overall, when you are done, the stance will be perfect. I did it to my 92 GT. After you are done, have a shop do your alignment within specs.

FYI...if you cut your springs you will get the same effect, however your performance will suffer.

you could cut a coil or two or find some front springs out of a 4 banger
