lowering a 2000 grand am gt

Aug 07, 2004 2 Replies

I just bought a 00 grand am gt for my daughter and would like to buy one of those spring kits that drops the car 1.5-2 inches and I was wondering how hard these are to install?



I've restored my 69 GTO, rebuilt engines, etc but have no real experience working on newer cars



my question is would I be getting over my head to do it myself?



thanks for any help.

I have a friend that does that. It's pretty easy. You could do both sides on a Saturday afternoon. Be sure to buy and install new control arms else your tires will stick out at odd angles and handling will be quite dangerous.

dont forget struts, if you just put in the springs with stock struts the car will bounce on bumps and be quite unsafe
