    Son-of-a-beeaatch! :( You're absolutely right. Geez... Thanks for the heads up. I wonder if there's anything to worry about with it up like that.

        and you need to get those brackets welded on, they are going to shift and eventually mkae your car pull left or right.

          You need to redo it, I would think it would put more stress on the bar and end up bending. I would redo it before any damage is down to the bar.

              They're bolted to the shock. How could they shift?

                    how hard is it to reach that adjustable nob? and did you notice a differnence in weight between the stock shocks and the agx's when you were installing them?

                    I got my agx's goin on in a few days...

                      Not hard at all, just reach around the tire. They seem like very nice shocks. Not too sure about the weight. I wouldn't say they are too different, but then again, I wasn't paying to much attention.

                        where did you get the parts at? im still looking around online, so far everything says lt1/ls1. i'd imagine it all would fit excluding the springs.

                        im not sure about the car being so low. your rear tire looks hidden. or is it just me?
                        Do you have any bottom out problems? I think wh en I get my rims and shocks, i want at the most a 1/2" - 1" drop.. but I dont know yet.

                        But I could just imagine the handling.
                        Good job Bone.

                            The springs are discontinued. I bought them from a member here.

                            The shocks I got on eBay of $330 shipped.

                            The tube stuff I got at LMPerformance.com. They have a specific V6 F-body section.

                            There's still about a 1.75" gap in the wheel wells. I drove it over all the speed bumps here and had no scrapage. Then again, I usually drive my truck about an inch off the ground, so the Camaro is still high to me. :)
