Currently my Wagon sits on Springs the previous owner cut.
I Love the way it sits but its way too bouncy. i need a stiffer ride.
Are there any options that will keep me this low but firm up my ride?

Are you going to leave it at this position or do you plan on going back to a more stock height?
Have to determine this first before buying shocks!

He said he loved the way it sits now.

Belltech makes drop springs and drop shocks for our cars. Check into them.

Looking at Belltech, are their drop rates for wagons or sedans?
Im assuming its for a sedan, so i will end up getting more drop because i have a wagon, correct?

So something like a 2"F/1.5"R might get a more even drop?


The shocks will help but it really needs springs too.

Yeah. Belltech makes a set of 3" drop springs (if I remember correctly...) for these cars. There's also a company on eBay that offers them, Canuck Motorsports, and they've had some favorable reviews.

The sedans are heavier in the front end as our backs cause a cantilever action due to the length of overhang. Impala SS springs (stock) raised my front end.
