      69 camaro lowering help or decision making

      Hey guys I'm going with either all 18s or 19x10" back 18x8" front now this is simple for most of u, but me, what do I need to buy when money is not growing on my oak tree out back. I'm readin that drop spindels is not the way to go. I have yet to buy my full disc brake system. So offer 2" drop spindels on them. I guess just ordering a spring to the right height is the way to go. If so how do I order the tight length spring. I want the top of the wheel not tire to be even or just a smite lower than the fender wheel wel or and quarter same I cant order twice. I will post a reply with a pick that I like. Thanks. Nick

      Hey Nick -

      If you want to avoid drop spindles there are other ways to lower the car and get a good stance and improved handling.

      So many of our customers requested springs with a lower ride height that we finally designed a spring specifically to allow camaro, firebird, and nova owners to lower their cars without negatively affecting handling. This is a sneak preview of our all-new 3" drop springs. Here's an installed shot:



      You can get them alone or with a TVS, and they bolt in just like our other springs, but with a full 3-inch drop instead of a 1.5-inch drop. We've designed them with a spring rate that provides a really comfortable ride and still delivers the same performance.

      we achieved the stance on our Camaro with 3" springs in back and tubular arms in front with a 2" drop spring and the adjustable spring shims removed. You could achieve the same look with stock arms by trimming a coil, but we usually don't recommend that as done incorrectly the spring may not seat correctly.

      Hope this helps.
