C_randyjones Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I an thinking about getting a set of lowering springs and installing only the front. Maybe about one inch of lowering. This would correct the stance "problem" and maintain height and support in the rear for trailer towing. Any thoughts on how handling would be affected?

Xenonk Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I dont think you want to do that, that can really screw around with the overall suspension driving when you DONT have a trailer around.. what you need are stiffer springs, not lower springs.. if you are going to lower the ride height, you can really throw off the balance of the car under handling and braking situations.. it could make your car more twitchy under braking Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_randyjones Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Thanks, I was afraid of that! Any recommendations for which springs with this in mind....i.e. -stiffer springs. I assume that all lowering springs are stiffer? Sorry, don't mean to be such a "newb". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that all lowering springs are stiffer? Sorry, don't mean to be such a "newb". The issue is tongue weight. Either balance what you are towing, or move the ball higher. Same goes for two axles. The total weight on the tongue should not drag down your cars rear end! "Belief does not make truth. Evidence makes truth. And belief does not make evidence."

rougeben83 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Has anyone tried those rubber spacers you put in between springs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
