I have done street lowering of 1.5" using a person's
stock springs and shocks, to save people money.
I know how to calculate the drop without it
causing "CV joint death".
2" drop sometimes requires a camber it.
I have been "told" that cheaper shocks go away in about a year.
That was my experience also with $90 Tokico's.
ChiTown Brat swears by "Ground control" shocks, so you might pm her to find where she gets them.
Sometime if you want to test some 2" drop springs, to see what it does
as far as camber wear, pm me. Some springs advertised as 2" drop don't really drop EVERY car by 2"; and for some, it's more than 2".-Bob
