regalguy1996 Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 so i seen the intrax springs on summit racing for the monte carlo, i heard that these are basically the only lowering springs you can get for the fronts, how much of a drop could i expect from these springs? also who i contact about the flex a form monoleaf, im havin a lot of trouble tryin to lower this damn car Quote
CSI_MuNkY Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 whats with all these lowering threads? There is a sticky at the very top of the suspension section dedicated to lowering w-bodies of all generations. Coilovers, get it as low as your tires will let you /thread Jamie Quote
xtremerevolution Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 Talking to Flex-A-Form isn't common knowledge, and IMO replacing a leaf is easier (and cheaper) than getting a coilover kit. You have to call Flex-A-Form and tell them how much of a drop you want. They'll make you a spring based on what I and other people have ordered from them for this application. I'm very, very pleased with mine. As for the front, I'd try to find some Suspension Techniques springs. IIRC they're labeled for the early 90's Monte Carlo. Quote
Dark Ride Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 I thought the Intrax and Eibachs were discontinued, but Summit lists them for the '95 Monte Carlo. This is news to me, wonder if I could get just the fronts? Quote

I had a set on order for 2 months and never got them. Quote

3.1cutlass Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 /thread Jamie read it again folks! Lol shit. I guess that is the only option for lowering. Guess we all have to invest in coilovers or we just plain are not doing it right. Quote

Guy bought them in a GB we had on here a few years go, never used them. That ain't bad, but I'm kinda sold on coilovers being adjustable and getting a progressive spring. Quote

I don't remember anyone making coilovers for the front of the car though, and the Intrax springs he was referring to were for the front. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 Intrax > ST had both.....Intrax rides better. Quote
