yes, just install them in the stock spring mounts
Can you post or email me a picture of your installation?

I still have the stock worn springs but some friends use the coil overs springs and how supe said they fit perfectly

In my experience...14"-150-175lb spring should sit close to stock height on a full interior stock weight car. 12"-150 on my car much lightened sits 2-3" lower

this is correct. mine sat too low so i went with a 14 inch 150 and now it sits where i like it.

got any pics of how low it sat im thinking of taking out my 14" 150lbs springs for 12's. Now that i had to buy tire im running 275 DR's on a 15x10 and can slam my car as far as i want.


Im also curious how a 12" spring doesn't fall out when you put car on a lift.

my quick calculations would say 130lb 14inch spring would lower the back of my car by .6 inches but i think i wanna go lower and not have softer suspension.
