Is there any quick easy way to lower the front end a little bit? It sits ungodly high for my liking and suspension isn't one of my specialties.

frogmanjohn

many different ways to drop the front..

Order some lowering springs and just use the fronts.

Cut 1 coil off of you stockers.

buy a set of stock front springs and cut a coil off of them.

(put a big block up there)

You might be able to just find the front set of lowering springs from an off the wall place.

Or lastly, heat up your old spring with a torch and compress it a little..

Hope it helps,

Man, you're so e-tuff.

The only correct means to lower your vehicle is with dropping spindles. Altering the spring height will only ruin the steering geometry, specifically on turns.

well.......you can lower with springs....then you just have to correct the steering geometry... oh, and raise the strut mounting point to allow full travel and proper valving use.

then again, most people dont bother to do that stuff anyway.

I'm slightly confused. Aren't you the HS kid who co-owns a speed shop or something? Is it the Kenskustomchassis place in your sig? So you have access to people and tool to design and build custom chassis and you have to ask how to lower your car 1" on here?

Quick and simple way, just thumb through Jegs and get some advertised lowering springs and slap them in. You'll get your 1" drop and you'll never notice a difference in handling... I'd avoid heating the coils, but the other mentioned options would work well too.

i am running the eibach sportline lowering springs, with monroe sensa trac shocks. I got an alignment after i put the springs in and i love the way she rides now.
