New springs help

Post by FIRSTLAST » Wed Jul 15, 2026 6:13 pm

02 Tran Am Bilstein option. My bump stops have 1/4" to the axle. I am 1.5 " lower than factory Bilstein height of 27.75.

Do I shop a different Spring, a Bilstein Pro 1.4" dtop, or Bilstein Sport at 1.2" drop.

Roads here are pounding. This sees 500 miles a day on a car show weekend.

Seems excessively low. Did you put the rubber isolators back on the tops of the rear springs?
