I hope all is well with everyone. After the wheel/tire swap and a very good inspection of the suspension I realize that I am in dire need of springs. I like the stance of the old wore out springs, and I cannot go any lower due to the tire size. I am not sure what springs to order. Any Ideas?

Air bag it. Seriously call Eaton Detroit Spring and tell them what you have and see if they sell a lowering spring. Or get with Hotchkis or someone like that.

I Recommend the Hotchkiss Springs.... I put them on my ride and the difference was immediately noticable. The front was a 1 inch drop and 1 1/2 inches on the rear.

The problem I am having is how much drop will get the car to the stance it has now. If I order springs that have too much drop my wheel and tire combo will not work, if I order to little, then I am cutting springs. I have no way to judge it seeing that springs on it have sagged so badly. I am thinking of the Hotchkiss setup like 1965F85's. Do you have a pic of the car you can post? I am running 18 x 8 in front with a 245/45/18 and 18 x 9.5 in rear with 255/45/18's
