Mean A@# Stance
Mean A@# Stance
Not sure if this is where this ? goes if its not in the right place I apologize.
What is the best way to get the mean *** stance on our f-bodies. Rims, Air shocks, lowering springs I have seen all these and they seem like reasonable options, but whats the best. just to make sure you all know what I am talking about check out Camaroguy18's car I hope he doesnt mind here is the link (https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/member.php?u=29249) That is the meanest stance I have ever seen it looks like it's gonna jump at me.

Re: Mean A@# Stance
Directly from Camaroguy18's CarDomain:
"*Suspension has been replaced with Eibach Prokit springs, Blistein HD shocks and struts, Spohn Wonderbar/sway bars/LCAs/and LCA relocation brackets, a BMR adjustable Panhard rod. Also Spohn subframe connectors were welded into the car to help keep the frame straight."
His Camaro is the nicest third gen I've seen. Its the exact color I want to paint mine. Its great inspiration for other guys.

Re: Mean A@# Stance
It looks to me that in the pictures, the rear wasn't lowered, only the front. The lowering springs are what's going to give you the "stance" that you're looking for. And you'll also want to replace the stock shocks with some aftermarket ones that can handle the shorter springs and the stiffer spring rate. The LCAs, wonderbar, SFCs, and the sway bars are just going to improve ride quality and handle, they won't specifically give you a different stance.

Re: Mean A@# Stance
It's the Eibachs and the Bilsteins - the rest is suspension support, lateral support, frame stiffening. The adjustable panhard is required with the lowering springs to realign the rear end left to right.
