moog or lowering springs?
Going to order springs for my suspension rebuild.What would you go with Moog IROC replacement or lowering springs. Any opinions based on your experience with them would be great.

Re: moog or lowering springs?
Depends what you want to do with car or goal
If you want to lower or be at stock height etc
Pro kit iirc is around same spring rate as iroc springs but you get the better look of being lowered 1"
sportlines are another options slightly softer spring and lowers 1.6" iirc
Fyi for sportlines if you going for better handling I would stay away they are complete crap but if it's just a weekend cruiser than they will do just fine
Then there's weight jacks and multiple springs rates available and can raise or lower ride height as needed

Re: moog or lowering springs?
After going back and forth I ordered the Moog IROC coil springs. Now that I have all the new front and rear suspension parts comes the fun part of installing them.
