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.
the intimidator ss, jr, and TS are standard FE as far as i know. not all the ss are FE4 fyi cuz mine isn't. the 05 SS might be FE4???

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.

the 97-03 gp supension sux. i know the rear spring are weak and they do sag also the their front sway tend to cracked, and trailing arm will likely bend.

OOPS! No offense. Was trying to explain what I meant and didn't do it very well. Should have added some smileys on it
Hope you find something that works Mak

Hmm, well i have an 03 SS High sport and it has FE3 suspension it says....how does that make mine different if i were to change my suspension. when i got my suspension parts, they all fit fine and the same with my 18s. my car came stock with 16's.
my car didnt come with the GMPP tubular trailing arms i know, because i had to put them on lol. i didnt buy special struts or springs, just springs and struts for regular monte suspension.
