Yea its perfect...I dont know if you remember my WS6 from the last GM Muscle meet in Corona but it was parked on the other side of the 68 Camaro next to you.

I liked the look with the Eibachs but it was way too low. Now it rides alot nicer and doesnt hit anything...I went over speedbumps today for the first time in a while without having to worry about it screwing up my exhaust.

Looks good bro!!!
I dont know about where yall are at but around here in tacoma the roads absolutly SUCK and I havent had any problems with scraping, and my Y hangs pretty low.
I couldnt believe the difference in how my car felt after the Strano treatment(shocks/springs/front and rear sways). Its freaking awesome!
Sounds like youll have shocks the same time I install my torque arm/sub-frame connectors, again from Strano!

BDB: Thanks! I only did it so the whole car would match. It's all glossy: Berger, 10 spokes, roof, Manta and 6LE splitter (not in the pic)

Looks great, but you must be a glutton for punishment putting the springs on and then having to do the whole thing over again when you get the new shocks . I just did the strano's with the 4/3 koni's and it is a great setup, you will be very satisfied with the improved handling... even in a tropical storm.
