Thumbs up Rear Heightening Springs

hey I just ordered these today
http://www.wbodystore.com/grandprix/...ngs-p-304.html
I will keep you all posted next week when I get them on the Monte
and let you know all the pertinent info for the ride height and handling
with my big stereo system it has dropped my car in the back by about 1"
so this should get me back to the look I am going for and save my struts from going bad early .

I did also get
http://www.wbodystore.com/grandprix/...nts-p-302.html
and I will give a update on these also

OK wow the Polyurethane Engine Mounts make a good bit of difference in the feel of of the motor when you are coming out of a complete stop it is a must upgrade for you ride
now for the new springs they raised the back of my car a solid 1 1/4" from where it was sitting after the 2 layers sound deadening and the 2 extra car batteries 32 lbs each and the 3 amps and the 300 lbs of the subs and box
and the car is back to the original ride height + 1/4" the handling is better and it feels like the front end is planted down firmly on the ground so they were totaly woryh the monet and was way cheeper than the $1375 fo the air struts i was looking at

I will as soon as I get back I will it is only a 1 1/4" but I will try to get the picture that will show it I should have did a picture with a tape measure so it would be easer to see I did measure it before and after but no pictures ...If i did not have the system it would be at least a 1" higher than stock and really put the spoiler up in the air .It sounds like you may have these springs already on yours
