I may be mistaken... Are the sportlines the 2" lowering springs? The really low ones? I have the ones that lower about an inch... Is that the pro kit? I can't remember now. I bought them from uls1a..

I'm around - just lurk more than anything. I've been kinda down on the Camaro recently (thinking of selling it) so haven't had much to say.

The sportlines are a 2 inch drop the prokit are 1.5 inch, supposedly, they may actually measure lower. Neither are terrible good, the prokit is better though, but both are soft for the amount of drop and the sportline is too much of a drop, and will limit the amount of shock travel.
