sagging will be associated with a spring. the shock does not keep the car up.
ok, i'll look at it closer in a couple days (hello warm weather). i jacked it up and it still has more force than i have arm strength so i dunno. am i likely to seriously damage anything driving it like this for 2-3 weeks? it drives fine other than losing a little power on the weird angle things are on
is it feasible to lower my car about an inch for under 350? just replacing springs? and i would need an alignment right?
if you install the springs yourself, then under 350 is feasible. yes, you will need an alignment after you install the springs.
check the isolator on top of the spring... make sure it's well put on both sides
what exactly is an isolater? just whats between the spring & car?
i'm extremely impressed with my camaros durability btw. almost hit a deer last night, popped 2 tires going over a pretty big curb and jumped a ditch (like 5-10 ft across 3 or 4 ft down). no damage other than my 1 rim which is a little off balance now (dented rim). just from how it feels goin over bumps and such i figured that kind of abuse would've totalled it. and i want new rims anyway. i'm not sure if i'm really lucky or if i've underestimated the car...
big thick rubber doughnut thingy that goes between the spring and body. keeps all those annoying squeaks, when the spring moves around, from coming into the car.
could that incident be the cause of a the wheels not being same height ?Quote:

i think i'm gonna be doin some springs soon. so hard to decide though, seems everyone has completely different opinions...
