RE: lowering springs

I was considering the steeda ultralite springs. They provide up to a 1 3/8 ince drop, which is all I really want.

RE: lowering springs

You can pretty much get any drop you want with lowering springs by keeping/removing isolators.

Doesnt that make the suspension noisy?

RE: lowering springs

When lowering, at what point do you have to worry about the physics of the suspension as a whole, steering, ground clearance, or bottoming out over bumps?

Thanks,

Jason

RE: lowering springs

I'm also curious about height, and the effects of that on the steering. I'm gusiing you need an alignment immediately after installing the springs, but if the ride height is altered will the specs for alignment be affected by that?
