I have a 93 camaro, and it is unfortunatly lowered on the worst kind of way; the springs are chopped. The car is very low especially in the front. I have compared it with another camaro with Eibach 2" drop springs, and my car seems to be 0,5 inch lower.

I'm going to get some new eibach springs. What else should I buy to get rid of bump-steer and make it go nice in turns?
Adjusteble panhard rod? Relocation brackets? Shocks?

Thankful for answer /Bjorn

 

i got the lowering kit form thunderracing.com and it came with the new adjustable panhard rod cause you need one when it is lowered and lca relocating brackets. if i were you i would go and get new LCA's and new shocks. it will even everything off under thier that might have gotten ruined while the car had chopped springs.... anyone else know of anything i missed?

 

When you lower the car you usually need sway bars and lower control arms in the rear. The other mods you said will help out as well as getting a better torque arm. All that will definitly improve your handling.


P.s. Also some sub frame connectors will help also

 

Thanks for the answers!

I think I know what to do in the rear now, but is there something that can reduce the bump-steer that occurs in the front? Is there someting else to do then raising the steering gear?

 

what exatcly do you mean by bump steer?

 

Are you sure you have bumpsteer because its lowered? I'm not sure if its because of the chopped springs or not but, usually you get bumpsteer from getting in an accident.

Bumpsteer is when you hit a bump, the suspension compresses and makes the wheels turn to one side due to the steering rack not being lined up right. Kinda hard to explain without a piture...

 

I've seen bump-steer tie rod ends on the rksport website. I'm not sure who else sells them. Says you need an alignment specialist familiar with bump-steer adjustments.

 

Get a good set of springs for sure. Probably an Eibach Proline, or some such thing. Get a good set of shocks to match the springs. If you have lowered only about 1-1.5 inches you can get away with leaving the rest alone, but I would recommend the rear LCA relocation brackets. Makes for a nice improvement in traction out of corners. Unless you are into hard core AutoX and/or road racing you will not likely get much value/dollar for other mods. So, save your money.
