Your Current Featured Fbody Dropped His Ride 2"

[PewterBird]

I figure I can use that title while it last.
Please don't mind the dirty wet car, it has been raining constantly for the last few days.

This is with Eiback Pro-kit 93-97. I know I didn't use the correct year, but I did it on purpose. It had a softer spring rate. The front has KYB AGX adj. Shocks and the rear is a Gabriel Airshock. I can adjust the ride height in the rear, from a huge raked look or dragging the *** look.

Here is some quick shots. And for refrence an old shot.

After:



Don't Mind the Dirty Wheel:



One for the hell of it:

The pro kit didn't drop you 2''s. Looks good.

Hmmmm. I might have to get a new measuring tape. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I know it is rated for 1.5'', but this is not the 98-02 kit. This kit is softer.

Possible reasons for an increased drop could be:

In the rear, I was missing a spring pad thing on one side, so I removed it.

Possibly the 98-02 is heavier.

Shock/Strut Choice.

Regardless, I know what I measured.

Thanks

Looks very nice, when I finally lower mine I'm gonna keep the back a bit higher for the old school muscle car look [img]smile.gif[/img]

Your car looks like it sits exactly where mine does. I used hotchkis and it dropped it almost 1.5" Although, your car looked higher than mine to start...a lot higher...so it very well could have dropped 2. Regardless,...it looks good now.

At the center of nose, right below the licence plate fill in.

And in the rear at the top of the licence plate Cutout.

Niether were the lowest part of the car, but a straight descernable line on the car.
The front droped from 10.5 inches to 8.5 inches and the rear from 21-19 inches.
