Haha snow we dont get that in TX. However in IL kinda diff but still doesnt snow that much in Carbondale so my stance is ok. But I hate the roads here which fucks up my car more than anything. Its not a ramp you enter its a fuckin curb its horrible listening to my exhaust scratch all the damn time.

ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!
Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956
Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Originally posted by NAiL05I have had mine on stock struts for about 3 years now lol. And now they are starting to go out =D. Its the greatest shit but I have the sprint blues 2.25. Dont recall of any spring that sprint makes thats 2.5" Only other spring I know of is the extreme that drops it like 3.25".

Originally posted by mix4You're right, they are 2.25, thanks for correcting me on that. I've had them in my trunk for the last year so I guess my brain just rounded it out automatically. We have the same springs then, how has your experience been with them?

I will agree with all of these posts, it's just not a good idea, do it right the first time or don't do it at all, your just going to blow your stock shocks and then you'll be riding horribly until you can put the money together to get aftermarket ones.I know it sucks to wait, but it'll be worth it in the end

If you're going lower than 2", definitely get a camber kit. The rears can be done with washers (there's at least one DIY for that). Many people don't recommend the ball-joint style kits, because the ball-joint shouldn't really be replaced (the whole A arm should be replaced when the joint goes bad). Still, there are many people who use them with no problems. The anchor bolt type (like Ingalls) are the more accepted kind.
When you correct your camber, it's best to leave about 1 degree of negative camber. It won't do much more damage to your tires, and you won't smack your fenderwell with your control arms (0 camber usually does this). An alternative is to hammer out the fenderwell, but that can cause rust issues if you don't repair cracked paint afterward.
