I recently bought a 99 T/A and the front end is VERY low. It has SLP headers which doesn't help with ground clearance either. The previous owner said the car still has OEM shocks and Springs. He said he put Upper and lower A arms, and that's why it so low.

My question is are there any adjustments that I can make to raise it up some? or do I have to take those out all together to not ride so low?

upper and lower control arms shouldn't mess with the ride height.

If it has a lot of miles i'd put shocks and springs on it. They are probably sagging.

Stock is 4x4 so you should have plenty of ground clearance.

Hmm i think he did put springs in.

How can I find out if the springs were replaced? I am not very suspension savvy.

OE springs are a dark gray. Don't know why someone
would swap control arms without doing springs (or at
all, since aftermarket front control arms tend to be no
lighter weight, and less rugged).

Normally aftermarket springs have the compnay that makes then stamped or painted on to the coil of the spring. That or the color will tell you as well.

See if the stock Orange shocks are on the car they should Delphi on them.

I have a set of stock front springs that you can have for free. I was told that they are from a 2001 WS6 with approximately 60,000 miles (?). I will be in Daytona next week from Sat to Sat and can bring them with me if you want. Just let me know.
