Pontiac SLP, looks like the previous owner of your car removed the rubber spring isolators that sit on top of the rear springs. This usually drops the rear by 0.75". If you want to lower the front end too, I would suggest either lowering springs like BMR, Strano or Eibach (LT1 only) for all four corners, or cutting about 1/2 to 3/4 of a coil from the bottom of the stock front springs, or best of all, Koni SA shocks on all four corners with the front springs on the lower mount.

Yeah heres a guide to the hose mode or replacing the rubber isolator with heater hose. you could just do the opposite to level it out if the previous owner did the mod.
