Recently bought a '97 SS that was lightly modified by a previous owner (uh-huh!) and I'm trying to figure out what the suspension is -- in particular, the springs.
OK, I know the shox are deCarbon, SLP SFCs, Hotchkiss panhard & lower arms. With factory 17" SS wheels and factory-spec Goodyear Eagle F1 245-40ZR17 tires, it sits 1 3/4" lower front & rear than my '96 V6. (Right about sittin' on the bump stops.)
The Q: The springs are dark gray, which rules out Eibach and SLP. Does anyone else use gray? Maybe they're cut-down factory springs?
Thanks for any help!
