Guys with LT do you have problem...
going over speed bumps. How much ground clearance did you guys lose with LT. I scraped my sfcs once going over speed bump and I didn't think that they hang that low, everyone says that LT are the lowest part of their car. So do you guys have trouble getting around with them.

I have Kooks long tubes on my stock height Z and they only scrape on the BIGGEST speed bumps. There is a shopping mall locally that has the really huge ones. None of the speed bumps on any public streets I've been on drag.

Any lowering springs? I scraped mine about 3 times while I still had sportline springs (~2" drop) in the front, but I didn't have sportlines on very long before swapping out for the stock SS suspension (~3/4" drop) and I was really careful.

Pacesetter LTs are one of the better LTs in terms of ground clearance, they tuck up pretty nice.

Thanks for the pictures, I really wanted to see what they look like under the car. It looks like you got about 3 inches of ground clearance from your lowest point, does that sound about right?

Here's a picture of the bottle:
Didn't bother me much since I was planning on going back to the SLP/Bilstein my car was originally optioned with.

I'm lowered 1.25" and I'll scrape if I'm not careful on bigger speed bumps. 90% of the time I can go over without scraping if I go on an angle. All-in-all, they are totally worth it. Get em!

This. I've never scraped the Kooks on my LT1 car (hit the turn downs a few times when I had them). That car is lowered and will clear all but the tallest bumps if you're careful. My LS1 car with stock manifolds and Y pipe will bang an overzealous ant hill though.
