Lowering questions, any help?

Hey guys, I have owned 6 camaros and none of them have ever had a stance like my 25th anniversary heritage edition, it, while sitting on level ground, has a really high front compared to my rear. Does anyone know what this may be from? My real question is, to possibly fix the difference I would have to lower the front, say 2", and leave the rear alone, but I'd like to lower the rear as well, does anyone know a spring kit that has a 2" front 1" rear drop or what would be best to use, and where could I find them, thanks for any input!!

Your problem might be that the front springs have in indexed incorrect. For info about lowering, peruse the sticky at the top of the page.

What exactly do you mean about the front springs? Suspension is new to me, lol. I just know it doesn't look right and def doesn't have that aggressive look

The end of the spring has to be positioned between two drain holes in the a-arm for the car to sit correctly. Since you're new to suspension, take note of the stickies.
