[QUOTE="SVT CAMR, post: 13161372, member: 83181"] This is just the thread I needed. I am also going to be looking for the same ride as yourself OP. My original thoughts were to use the stock springs because I did not think would be a happy medium. After looking at the car for the past 2 weeks as it sits it looks kind of silly at the current height. It is lowered also with weight jackers and front coil overs. I really wanted to get rid of the front coil overs but only if I can come up with spring and dampener combos that suit me. I may just have to get new coil over springs that are stiffer. Then I can put the height where I want it. The problem is the shock towers were not designed to use coil-overs on a daily basis. Yes it can be done but I'm not sure just because I can do it that I should do it. I do have FRPP "C" springs in the attic but the drop in the front is going to cause problems with my exhaust and speed bumps. The problem with threads like these is there are sooooooo many different opinions. This might be something you need to try out in someone else's car to see where things are at. :pop: [/QUOTE]
