I came to a decision and ordered DSE coils and leaf springs with a 2" drop all around. As soon as it gets done I will post some pics up. I decided not to go with the summit because of the lower spring rate. The DSE leaf springs have a 175lb/in rate and the Summit had a 131lb/in. I'll feel better about not bottoming out and rubbing out back with the higher rate.

 

Great camaro wasting rubber and great thread. Im learning so much. I have allot of the same issues with mine we havent even come close to tackling. The front of my hood is off a bit, I cant get my grille to fit in, and def will have to lower the back when its all assembled. Goodluck with everything.

 

DSE was totally the way to go. People that have ordered Summit springs in the past, are probably very happy, but they have no idea what a real quality spring is anyway.

You will real glad you went the way you did, when all is said and done

 

I feel good about the decision on the DSE springs. I had been bouncing back and forth between Hotchkis, Summit, and DSE for a while before I came to a decision. It was hard between choosing saving money and having peace of mind. I've ordered plenty of Summit brand stuff for other vehicles I've had and never had any problems, but I feel alot better about the DSE springs.
