Lowering the Lumina

Haven't been on for a while, no Internet. So to make a long story short, I want to rid the Lumina of its excessive front end dive under braking and drop it a bit. Im looking @ ST Tech drop springs which advertise a 1.2 inch drop, perfect for me as I'm 6 5" and 300 so I sorta drop the car anyway, lol. Just to refresh, it's a 99 9c3 with the 3.8 and everything heavy duty. I've changed the subframe bushings, brakes, tie rod ends and the ball joints. Corners pretty flat but I'm going to add polyurethane sway bar bushings anyway. So the 64 dollar question is.... anybody dropped their 95-99 and if so, any problems that are unusual or weird. Give me a shout.

Re: Lowering the Lumina

I used a set of Eibach drop springs on my 95 monte carlo a couple of years ago. Didnt run into any problems with install. they are easier to install than factor, but make sure u put new mounts on the struts when installed our you will get a lot of poping noises over bumbs. U will be able to handle better in courners aswell. I f yours has a lot of miles recommend replacing struts aswell.
