My car leans a little to the drivers side, so I want to change my springs. I've seen some used ones from a 2000 GT for like $20 for the set. I was wondering if I could use these on my 96'GT. And if so if I could cut them down to lower the car about 2 inches. Does anyone know how much spring to cut off to achieve this if they do fit?
How difficult is it to change the springs anyway. There is a shop here on base that has every kind of tool I might need and I can rent a stall for about $3 or $4 per hour. I know someone who had some put on his Honda and it cost him around $200 just for the install.
Thanks
