I got some hotchkis springs and was complaining that they have settled too much. I wonder if my car is stock a bit lower than most other 350s. In 2003 some people on the board told me that as well, when it was stock. Any ideas why it looks so low, on my old stock springs??

I have the Hotchkis springs and they just about the right ride height for my taste, except that the front is a bit lower than the rear after the added weight from the turbo kit.

Here is a pic of my car right after I installed the Hotchkis. Since then it has settled a bit more. If I have ANYONE in the car, I will scrape ANY speed bump and I often times tap my front lip on slight dips and driveways.
