What year grand prix spring are those? Does anyone have a part number? I am going to be doing the suspension soon and I'm getting rid of the factory too soft nonsense.

Well does anyone know how the Riv's auto-level feature works?

Yes, there is a level sensor that signals a small compressor in the right side rear to inflate or release air to the air shocks in the REAR only. Not uncommon for the system to be troublesome. You will need an FSM to diagnose problems with it.

IF you put STS sway bars on and Gabriel shocks/struts that will get you a stiffer 'touring' suspension. You could contact horseheadspickapart.com and if they still have the parts they would have a yardman pull and ship you the front and rear bars off my old Riv (which is not there parting out). Ask them to give you the links too, they are Moog HD with some sort of nylon or poly bushings, work very well
