Compared to MOST of the Z-28s I've seen over the years, I would say, "Yes", this one is lowered...not a lot, but inded lowered.

Yes, a little bit. Otherwise, it'd look like a tank.

It looks a tad lower but I wanna say its stock height. What size are the rims? It might be the rims throwing me off.

But yes, take pictures of the springs.

I got the car on a lift today and looked at it. The springs were dirty so i took my finger and wiped them off and they were jet black. I also noticed something strange on the passenger side rear two of the coils are together. The car gets very swirly in curves, trammels like crazy and rides like ****. Is it possible they're some kind of drag springs or just screwed up factory ones. I thought all my handling problems were because of bad shocks. I'll try to get some pics up in the next little bit. I don't know where the camera is so i may have to wait for my girlfriend to get home. Thanks

The rims are 18s. Its got a 275 35 18 on the back and a 255 40 18 on the front. I took my hand and wiped the springs off the best I could.

The pic of the car looks like it's lowered, but the springs look like my stock springs did.

Looks like stock with worn suspension IMO.

So if i just buy stock springs for the back I'll be good? Do I need to buy them for a Z or a SS.

stock springs it looks like. but since one of your rear springs is touching on the coil...it looks like someone took a torch to them to try and lower it. the rears need changed asap for sure. it would be a safe bet that they heated the fronts too.

Are moog replacements any good from advance auto?

Yes they are.

Yeah, the rear springs need to go.

Personally I wouldn't buy oe equivalent replacement springs from the aftermarket. There are just too many actual OE springs available for next to nothing. If you want to buy springs then I would look into some of the better performing versions out there. If you like a solid handling car I would look into Strano springs/Koni shock set up. If going for pure drag racing then find something more in that line.

Moog springs are a quality item, but I would hazard a guess that they'd jack up the back of the car a bit...might not be what you're looking for.

VandykeT/A

what about doing the moog springs with the hose mod to set it back down?

It's a possibility, but it all depends on what ride height the Moog springs would give you.
