It could just be me, but it's possible the springs weren't "lowering" springs at all, but cut original springs.
With Eibach Springs lowering 1" and KYB GR2 struts the springs are still tight in the carriers when I raise my 89 off the ground. And I can tell you it sits low.
There are those out there that believe you can safely lower a car by chopping off coils to lower a car, but the bottom line is it throws off the whole spring rate the spring was rated for. May look cool on the show room floor, but start flogging it and catastrophic failure at a time Murphy chooses will cause you the most discomfort and pain.
I just looked through the BGB Rear suspension section and the specifications section for a test height for the spring once it is setting on the floor and couldn't find one.
Does anyone have an old set of springs to measure and post on here? Should get him close enough to be able to make a decision on his are good to go, or buy new springs.
