Hey guys...I was told this once, on this site acually....When you are ordering drop springs you'll notice it gives a different part# than the hard top. The reason being I believe is that the spring rate is different because of the extra weight you're carring. I figured this out the hard way,I took the drop kit out of my LX and stuffed them in my Rag the rear fenderwells were on the tires! I've taken them out of the back but Still have them in the front

I have'nt driven the car yet ,... but I'm pretty sure it's going to handle dangeroulsy....I will order new ones when $$$ is'nt so tight. Your call though. Good luck.
