What springs you running with the belltech spindles? That stance is where I need my Cutlass.

They are the moog 5658 springs up front. These springs are somewhere around 500 lb spring rate. Moog has a spring which is the same height as these but are over 700 lb spring rate. With the LS1 in my car it needs the higher spring rate. I am not sure what the moog spring part number is without looking it up. I would suggest the 700+ spring rate.

Figure this would be a good spot to ask: is anyone running drop spindles AND the tall lower ball joints? I was looking at mine with standard ball joints and it looks like bumpsteer city if it goes any higher.

The 707 lb. Spring is the 5664.

500 Cadillac, aluminum intake, aluminum radiator, AC and heater box intact, TH400, bolt on glass hood, and under hood battery for now. I kicked around getting 500lb springs but just wasn't convinced it was needed.

^^^^ how far are the spring platforms wound up on the coilover shocks? And what balljoints do you run? Std or taller?

2” Umi front and rear. View attachment 104691

that has 2" umi springs front and rear? love the stance.. i have been looking at dropping my cutlass and was afraid that 2" may be to low to be practical on these jersey roads. that car still looks quite functional. did you only do the springs or did you do control arms and other things? did it align ok after the drop? how tall are your tires? mine are about 26" tall./
