drop?

Im looking to lower my car but only like a half inch to an inch does anyone make a shock for that, The lleast amount of lowering shocks ive seen have been 1.8 inches, just a little too much for me.

you know it's the springs that lower it, right? not shocks.

are the springs on the car currently the stock springs? if so, they've probably sagged alot over time. the lowering springs measure from the factory ride hieght, so with sagging springs, i'd think that pretty much any lowering springs would work, though i've heard really good things about the hotchkis springs, and i believe they advertise 1"-1.5" lower than stock. might want to check those out.

check out the hotchkis springs...

when you replaced the springs, what springs did you use? you might just be able to get away with IROC's or WS6's.
