Re: Added lca and relocation brackets now tires getting cut

Do you have the part number for the springs and bump stops you used? I have Koni Yellows and eibach springs and the ride is not comfortable and at times feels dangerous. Want to switch out to either the 1LE setup or SS setup if I can find it. Just changed the tie rod ends (inner/outer) and the sway bar bushings but that didn't affect the ride much at all. I'm thinking I need to switch out the upper/lower front arm bushings but definitely want to swap out the eibachs...do not like. I have a 1996 Z-28, not sure if 2002 SS parts fit on my car.

Thanks

Not sure if it will affect my car however some of the reviews for the Moog CC635 say it lifts the car up 2 inches?
Amazon Reviews for CC635 Amazon Reviews for CC635
It does say it fits my car however the 60116 says it only fits 2000-2002 Camaro which is odd since I thought the suspension was the same. I was planning on using these springs with a pair of bilsteins I had and leaving the Koni's with the Eibachs as a backup set. I ordered some new bump stops as well, appreciate the help!

It will lift you sagging springs about an inch and sit exactly like an original 00-02 SS.


If you run the Moog 60116, CC635, and Bilsteins all the way around it will look exactly like this:
