Default 9" owners inside..

Installed my 9" couple months ago, and noticed that the car sits up higher in the back, did you reuse the rubber on top the springs, or put in v6 springs? Thanks for the feedback, Sam.

i have my stock SLP/eibach springs in my car with the rubber isolator, and my rear end sits higher then it did previously....i had rear end shitty eibach sag before, so it sits good for me.

i have heard that they raise your rear a bit, nothing to be alarmed about!

My Moser 9" raised the rear of my car up a little bit, and I did put the rubber isolators back on the springs. Not really that big of a deal, and most other F-Bodies that I've seen with a 9" are the same way.

I hate the higher look, but it may benefit for bigger tires, but i only run 26's anyways.

My friend has a '02 SS 35 Anniversary with SLP springs that are lower than the stock springs. So all he does is talk **** to me about how the *** end of my car sits so high up in the air. He loves to bust my *****.

Yeah, but is your friend doing 5k clutch dumps and not breaking anything?
