Default HAL Springs make car too low!

We have the front drag springs and the R shocks and the car has like an inch clearance left on it and the turbo and piping isn't in yet! Are there any stiffer drag springs out there? Can you raise the spring seat?

Thanks!

Check out BMR's website. They sell half inch spacers to work with Hal shocks.

Here's a link, they are half way ddown the page. http://www.bmrfabrication.com/F-bodySuspension.htm

Isn't it possible to use stock front/rear springs with the HAL's?

Yes, it is. You need to modify the spring seats or you can buy new spring cups from BMR. I actually got my BMR spring cups today so I'll get to see how well they work this weekend.

BTW: There is no modification needed for your rear spings & Hals.

I'm running HALs with all stock springs. Works good.
