As indicated in the update of a previous post....

I deleted my statement regarding 2 different sets of springs available for the SS. Stupid mistake because I was pressed for time and read to fast. Overlooked the fact the other set was FRONT Springs....dumb.

IIRC, adding HHR SS springs to rear of LS/LT will lower approx 3/4"..........

Just sayin...

Thanks Sleeper, good to know.
If I replace only the springs, and not the shocks, will there be a difference in ride height? Do the FE5 shock help handling, but no effect on height?

I have a set of both, HHR SS springs, with fe3, and fe5 shocks, fe5 much quicker responce, but the fe3's sit 1/2" lower. I like them both.

swerv0428 - what rear shocks are you running?

sleeper

Yes just changing the rear springs alter the ride height.

FE5 shocks will be firmer, but no notable ride height change.

Thanks sleeper. So I'll get the 1 1/4" drop with the springs alone. Replacing the shocks just helps handling/ride, correct?
Also, I noted your signature banner...I do sales at Barger H-D in SoCal.

Yes the Cobalt SS/TC rear springs will drop the rear 1-1/4" after settling. (I have em in mine for about a few yrs now)..

Yes up-grading shocks would just help handling. If your stock shocks are leaking, great time to up-grade..

____Very Cool, about sales @ Barger H-D... Do you ride ?

Wifey & I have been out to Glendale H-D, & many other Dealers, Bro-n-Law lives out there..

We did the HOG* member "Fly-n-Ride deal.. That was back in 1995 tho..
