2inch drop

i searched and couldnt find a pic of what that would look like on a ss/sc so if any of you have a pic with a 2" drop please post it. I found ground Control Coilover Kit for $400 they dont come with Shocks an Struts so you can order the ones you like. They say they lower your car 2" for the SS model

so wait let me ask something... is there a limit to the amount you drop your car before you HAVE to get new struts and shocks? I heard it was like an inch and a half but that just sounds crazy.

nah there really isnt a limit...

the springs only drop soo much so,, i mean you could go coijls... but as far as springs.. you can use your stock struts... thats what im on... you could also buy konis... its all about the ride.. like mine is perfect on the stockers.. so...
