ok so i have an 07 LT with 17's nad everytime i look at struts it says anything bigger than 16's requires special handeling package.

does this mean my car came with fe3/fe4 suspension???
how do i check?

the only reason i ask is cause my rear end sags since the addition of subs and dynomat. just want to lift it up if possible and fe4 rear springs/ struts are supose to do that.

 

on your trunk lid there should be a sticker that has all your option codes on it. if you see fe4 then it came with it. to my knowledge only the ss cars got it. i could be wrong though.

 

thats what i thought to. but when you look at kyb's site it says that i need special handeling package struts. i was just wondering if they would fit and if anyone with fe4 has sag with extra stuff in the trunk. if no sag i will buy now and install in the spring.

 

Have you seen this site? http://www.compnine.com/vid.php

When I search with my vin it shows "FE4 - SUSPENSION SYSTEM SPECIAL RIDE & HANDLING SPECIAL SUSP(FE4)"

 

it has fe4 on yours cause you have a ss car. his car is an lt. i have a floor jack, tool box, jug of water, and 2 10s and an amp in my trunk no real noticeable sag.

 

yeah, knew mine had FE4 because of SS, but i don't know what other cars have FE4.

sorry, was just sharing something i enjoyed looking through to try to offer another place to check the suspension type - not trying to say it should be the same, just that mine listed it specifically, so if it did or did not have an FE4 it should list it there as well.

 

i have FE2 it says suspension sytem/ride handeling
FE1 = soft handeling
fe3/4 = sport

well i have about 60 lbs of dynomat, a 60 lb sub, a 75 lb, box, a jack, 30 lb amp, and a 50 lb battery

dont get me wrong i like the gap, but the front is much higher. ive seen the rear hightening springs from the w body store.

but i found a set in the junkyard of an ss with 11000 miles, so basicly brand new for cheap. comes with mounts,springs,and struts/FE4

will they bolt up to mine?

i think that would give it a better stance.

i want to lower the car, but i live in ohio [pothole central] so im not sure that would be a good idea. i think it would make it too rough.

 

i think they all look a little off. even the grand prixs look like the rear sits lower. lowering it shouldnt be that bad its only like an inch or an inch and a half. the front should be lowered slightly more with the lowering springs to even in out. all the stuff should swap over but i wouldnt want to use struts and what not with 100000 miles on them.

 

i wasnt trying to be offensive. but you are right that is another way to look it up. apologies if you took offense by what i said.

 

not 100,00

only 11,000 lol
