okay so Im trying to find lowering springs for the tgp and I cant seem to find them anymore. I had Intrax 95-99 monte springs but those I sold 2 years ago not knowing that I would end up with a tgp lol! funny how that works.

and any idea on how much a birchmount would lower?

 

I know I am going to have to sit here and search and read Im just curious as I have a birchmount as it came not installed with the car and whats guys normal use

 

thanks

I have a birchmount leaf and intrax springs on my 92, I think the birchmount lowered it around 2", maybe 2.5" after it settled. I think eibach springs are still available for the front.

Jarek, check the my thread at the top of the page. It has all the front lowering springs and where to purchase them.

I was going to leave it but I have mismatched springs in the front and the left side sags about an inch. thus since the car came with the birchmount Im thinking about swapping it in if I can get lowering springs for the front. i like the way that looks in those pics. Now hows the ride? stiff? noisey??

I used the 3" drop on the rear and trimmed the stock springs till I got the desired ride height for the front. Obviously there are other ways to do this. I have had no ill effects from cutting the front springs. Car rides stiff and handles great.
