Default Opinions on setup...

I have a 1995 lt1 trans am....

Just recently I added some Intrax lowering springs, and with my pacesetter LT's I scrape everywhere!

I also have the passenger side rear shock that is blown since the spring install.

Now my question is, do you think I should get new shocks and springs (something not so low)

OR

Go back to stock springs and get a new shock to replace the one that went out?

I dont really want to spend too much and would prob be able to make about 80-100 bucks on the intrax after i remove them....

let me know.

I took my intrax springs off after two weeks got tired of hitting my torque crossmember pulling in my garage. also had to park at the end of my moms neighbor hood and walk to her house to pick up my little girl cause it would scrape real bad on the speed bumps. I went back to stock set up for now.
