Z28 vs Drop zone springs before and after
Just have some pics of before and after. First pic is stock Z28 springs. After taking out the springs that I had firstone install about 6-7 years ago i found out that they were indexed wrong and thats some of what contributed to the huge fender gap in the front.

Pics of drop zone lowering springs. 1.75 drop all the way around.

Re: Z28 vs Drop zone springs before and after
I'm interested in this too - I dropped my '04 SRT-4 1.5" back in 2005 and swapped back to stock because, although the drop was really nice looking, it bounced like **** all over the place and you almost had to brace going over any bumps because you knew you were in for a really jarring, bumpy ride.

I only took a short ride around town. But everything felt good. Didnt feel all squeshy and bouncy. Just like having the stock setup but lower.
