Anyone Lower a Cruiser yet?

[Classicrocjunkie]

I reacently purchased a set of Eibach Pro kit lower springs. The exact same line i have on my cavalier and love them to death, thus why i got em for my cruiser. My only concern is the rear shocks. Since its a more agressive drop in the rear of 2" on the cruiser over the 1.4" drop all around on my cavalier, Has anyone ever had a problem with the shocks bottoming out? I know from experience that if this occurs you can bent the shock or break the whole mount off the car.. Just lookin for any input if anyone has done this yet..


thanks in advance.

I just installed a set of Eibach on my 2001 PT with a set of Monroe Sensatrac shock on them and I do not have that problem. I also installed a complete set of Energy Suspension Urethane Bushings wity new bump stops and the car runs better than new. Last sunday I took three adults a teeneger in my car and I did not bottom out. Maybe you need new shocks ....

I installed the same Eibach pro kit at 40K on my '02 Touring model. I'm now over 100K and no problems! Eibach knows what they're doing.
Good Luck.
