I assume you're slammed as low as you can go on the Bilstein ~8.7" length springs. If you use 8" springs like @ kostamojan you would move the spring perches up to compensate and keep a similar ride height to what you have now, or potentially go even lower (which I couldn't even fathom). @ Shankenstein is posting similar information in the post above mine as well. |
Actually with these 8" springs I'm higher than I was with the stock springs. 7" springs might actually work better if the bumpstops are removed.
If I were to lower the spring perch all the way to the bottom, I would be MAYBE lowered 1" from stock with these 8" springs, just for reference. Right now I have the spring perches lower than I had with the stock springs and I'm still quite a bit higher than before.
As of right now, I'm trying to decide If I want to take the risky option or the expensive option... Risky being modifying the stock bumpstops to get a little more travel, or the expensive option is to run a camber plate like the Racecomp camber plates which lower the suspension a lot and would allow me to raise the spring perches and get more suspension travel.
Not sure what to do...
