Do I have lowering springs?
I have a 95 firebird formula, I bought it with blown struts and shocks, and am in the process of changing them.
When driving the car I find it rubs on speed bumps and the car cannot be jacked up unless I drive it up on some boards.
I want to see if I can raise the car up to the stock ride height, im just not sure if I already have stock springs or have a lowered spring kit.
I measured the rear springs which are removed from the car and I get approx 14-3/4".
The fronts still connected in the strut but out of the car measure 11-1/4".
Are these stock? Any help would be great

If you can post a picture of the side view of the car, we can most likely tell if you have lowering springs in your car.

Both front and rear are painted black. The rears have a bitnof undercoat on them which leads me to believe theyre stock. The rear also had the decarbons still. The fronts are black and have kyb agx on them.

I would think you could look up the stock springs and get a measurement. Or do a google search. Every time I do a google search about my car, something from this site pops up. A lot of good info here.
