| it was almost exactly a year ago i got that quote. its just the springs. the air shocks shouldnt affect it. im not even sure we actually NEED the rear springs. it MIGHT level out by itself. maybe be could even cut the rod down for the level sensor thingy. idk. im sure it would be better just to do both sets though. _________________ 98 Riviera L67/4T65E-HD (SOLD ) 06 Cobalt LSJ/FGP35 w/ G85 86 Camaro Carb'd 400/4L60 87 1500 350/4-speed |

| it would be much cheaper for you guys to make a group buy for eibach 98-99 cadillac seville sts springs, which also offer a 1" drop. I know Brad from never enough auto carries the eibach line. They're about 205-215 bucks on ebay, for all 4. |

Can we move the spring topic to it's own thread...
I would really like to get these springs. Is there an interest in a group buy? I know some of you did a group buy on the sway bars...how did that work? and how did that work out? Did one guy have everything shipped to him and he shipped it to everyone else or was it shipped from the distributer straight to the member?
I'm one person for a group buy, any other serious participants? |

| A group buy on springs sounds good, but we still need to identify the spring that will work best, and also I think we should wait until everyone gets their sway-bars before we start up an order for something else. _________________ |
