I recently posted about purchasing drop springs. I have purchased and installed Summits brand lowering springs. Hopefully the following information will help others in the same modification. i am very satisfied with the purchase, installation and results of the summit brand springs.

These were installed on a 1991 camaro rs with 185, 000 miles on the odometer. its a 305 5 spd. there has been modification to the suspension, as can be seen in my profile pic. basically all bushings replaced with poly. The results were about 3/4 inch drop in the rear and 3/4 drop in the front. im still expecting the springs to settle as the installement was this weekend.

remeber to alway use precautions and safety first. a car can be replaced. take your time and enjoy yourself. walk away for a while if you get frustrated.

the rear of my car measured from the center rear fender lip on both sides were 27 5/8 inches. the front were measured at 26 3/4 inches. im running 17 inch rims on 245x45x17 tires with 38 psi.

The pics really do not show but its an improvement.

they were painted yellow by me as im in the process of doing an tech feature. it helped so the spring compressor can be seen.

there was a definate change in the handling of the car. i dont have any issues with getting in my driveway or bottoming out the exaust.

i would take credit for the "drag marks" but it really wasnt me that did it. they were there when i took the pics.
