    step 1: remove springs, and bump stops. use only shocks
    step 2: ????
    step 3: profit!

    OR king sssl (don't have a part number) i think are the lowest, then you can get them reset too if you really feel it's necessary. or if you use vs springs, they were lighter so will go lower again.

    KHRL-47SSL front and KHRL46SSSL rear... Ive got the Monroe lowered GTs for shocks, and handling is improved a fair bit with those. Cost me 700 for springs and shocks... worth every dollar.

    SSSL back and SSL front will look like you're sagging ass (unless thats the look youre going for, invisible caravan)

    this is what SSL fronts look like:

    Black

    backs are SL, you get the idea. sits level when in drive

    Got the springs from autobarn. I know the owner so they did me a good deal. But if your going to buy springs and shocks, they would probably give you a package deal price. No harm in asking.
