well i followed the ls1howto write up ...installed koni shocks and pro kit... well after i got the new shocks put on there was no way i could put the springs on so i un bolted the shocks put the springs on , i had to lift the rear a bit with a jack to be able to put the shocks on again. after i put everything else back on i put her on the ground and looks like i did everything right. took the car for a drive and everything seemed ok. only problem is that the drivers side seems to be a bit higher than the passengers by 1/4 of an inch.. have any of you noticed this ? or did i do something wrong??

i havent installed the fronts yet...

nope, thats perfectly normal. the fbody lean.

i just went back to stock rears without isolators; the prokit didnt work out too well for me on bumpy roads

Now you can come over and install mine.

I plan to install my Strano springs and Koni shocks soon. How long did it take you to swap out the rears and did you run into any snags?

Make sure the springs are in their correctly rotated possition in their respective rubber isolators. if their not it can change the height a bit.

After just coming off a Koni/Strano install today here is what i've learned.
A. Have plenty of WD-40 on hand
B. Don't waste your time trying to reuse the upper shock mount in the front. Go buy new ones from your local parts house.
C. If b is not a option prepare to cuss beat and bang. Also have a torch, sawzall, cutoff wheel, and a impact handy.

My car seems to have a 1/4 of lean aswell.
