How hard is it to lower a car yourself??? also what do i need to buy to lower the car. do i just buy springs or springs and shocks. this gonna be my first lowering of a car.

 

I would definately get someone who has done this before... I have lowered dozens of cars, but the Lexus is delicate. If you install the springs and struts slightly off, then it makes alot of creaking noise. Get good compnents or you will hear lots of noise. And definately do an alignment after you drop the car. Also, the rears are a pain in the a** to install. (they are inverted). Hope this helps.

 

maybe just do an eibach drop, springs only ....for about 3.5 cm.

would be sufficient I think. Anyway that's what I am going to do.

My tireshop will take care of it, it's not that expensive, they are used to do such jobs, so it will be fast and well done.
And you can always go back if something's not up to your expectations. Wheel alignment neccesary after the drop !!!!!!!

go 4 it Jmai

yezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

so if i just get the springs it will be ok?? won't that just mess up my shocks because now they will be compressed more. so won't that caused them to blow or something?? sorry for just stupid questions.

 

Hey guys, originally I had only installed my Eibach springs with my factory shocks. BAD IDEA. It rode so sloppy and It just didn't feel right driving the car. I pulled the whole thing out the next week and reinstalled with L-Tuned shocks. I would suggest doing both at the same time. The Bilsteins ride a little more sporty, the L-Tuned shocks ride a bit more cushy. Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for your Info .....I learned something from it!!!!!
