I've always wanted a softer ride, I'm no speeder anyway, besides my LS is an A/T, not the best choice to burn rubber. Any tips about it? Thanks.

Thanks, I know a place where they "revive" worn out shocks by punching a hole and recharging the gas, i thought i'd do the same but in my case, to actually decrease it. :)Quote:

that's not what we meant. We mean scrap the shocks/springs and put on an aftermarket airbag suspension.Quote:

Oh i see, lol... The only thing is, we have limited after market kits from where i'm at... i guess i'll just have to settle for stocks from my dealer then...
By the way, how about the other way? Instead of dealing with the shocks, would cutting the coils (about 1 to 1 1/2 circles) compensate for it? That would also mean a few inches of drop.
Thanks. :)
cutting the coils is a cheap mod ricers use to cheaply lower their cars. I advise against it and spring the cash for some actual lowering springs.Quote:
