Can I modify Firebird springs which cause my Camaro to ride higher than the rear. I don't want to buy new ones as the taxes and shipping make it uneconomical.
I forgot to compare them when I fitted them.

 

You can cut them. Do not modofy them with heat

 

Thanks. I still have the originals which were broken at the bottom ends. The tester thought it was dangerous. roll eyes

 

Anyone know what the correct springs should be? It looks like it is sitting too high.
I have seen both 5608 and 5610 advertised for my '82 Z28. There is no air conditioning compressor although the rest is still there.
The vin is IGIAP8775CN156231

 

Did you reuse the big rubber spring isolators? You can take those out and use a piece of heater hose or electrical tape and synthetic grease on the top of the spring to bring the rear down a little while keeping some protection against corrosion/ road noise.

 

The rear is ok. It's the front that I want down but I get the point about the rubber. I did not know about them at the time. I had assumed that both Pontiac and Chevs were the same. Ebay sellers are no help either.
