Lowering the alero

[spc2125]

i was thinking about lowering my alero 2 in all around...what do you think?

[robalero]

lowest springs go from that are avail unless you do it yourself ( from what I can find at least ) is 1.5 inch but either way do it

[guiguilandry]

no the dropzone or the canuck motorsport do almost 2¼ when finally settled
I got custom coilover for my l67 one that do almost 3½in and canuck springs on my LD9 one that does 2¼in

[alero_bmxer]

^yea i got about 2 with my Canuck motorsport springs

I just bought some Sprint springs & GR-2's for a malibu that says 1.75 front and rear...will be installing within the next week I'll put up pics then

[Shiwnath]

Did you guys buy your canuck springs right off their website? Also does anyone have the Eibach springs?

[kwhauck]

I have eibach race springs, but they are on custom coilovers......lol

[Redog]

Nobody asked the really important question.

How are the roads around you?

Roads are crappy here (thus why PA gets the worst roads in the country award year after year) so I only went 1.25 with eibachs

i was going to do it myself and just cut them....bad idea??

VERY bad...never take your advice from a honda forum...

[JLw7123]

bad idea just save money and get springs and struts you will be a lot happier with the lowered springs than just cutting the stock springs.

I had dropzones on mine and had about a 2 inch drop, their only like $109 shipped

[spc2125]

since im going to be buying them anyway, should i just give it a try?
and how much would those springs rough cost?

[03Sleepr]

My Sprint's were $89 shipped ;)

[robalero]

don't cut them, ull hate it and it will ride like crap.

never listen to a honda forum also they love to mess with people who ask questions

[Lucalare]

If you cut your springs the heat of the torch will ruin the temper of the metal, and they'll break in short order. And don't even try cutting spring steel with a saw/sheer, you'll ruin your equipment.

man i need a job for all these mods i want to do to my car.....FML

[03Sleepr]

mods aren't cheap...and if they are its usually pretty ghetto..

[robalero]

except for the different color bulbs behind the dash those are a pretty cheap mod to do that doesn't look ghetto

[spc2125]

are u talking about the instrumental panel lights?
if so what is the bulb needed?
ive been wanting to do that for awhile

[robalero]

its in the how to area, along with what bulbs to get, how it looks, etc

[Shiwnath]

Its really not too hard. There's a how- to somewhere on the forums. Use the search button to find it.
