    Those with MOPAR lowering Springs

    I have been seeing quite a few Eibach lowered car owners stating the the springs have settled more than the 1.3" that is advertised.

    What I am wondering if the MOPAR's settle more than the 1". I am just looking for a lil drop, I have problems with scraping as is.

    Thanks ya'll in advance.

    I had the MP highrates in my Neon, and they were quoted a 1in drop, but they were closer to 1.3-1.5. Someone in the club I was in had the Eibach prokits in their Neon and mine actually sat lower, and their kit was rated at 1.3.

    I would love to go that route again with my Mag, but I am worried that the struts won't take even that little a drop.

    Thats why I started this thread. An inch or even to 1.3" shouldnt be a problem, may bottom out a lil sooner. Atleast its a MOPAR product and should be a lil fire back if the shocks go dead quick. I have 42K on the Maggie and probably have a fight on my hands.

    Curious about this one myself. Also wonder how the ride quality is. (Promised the wife I wouldn't lower it so it has to be close to stock).

    If scraping it is a concern, don't lower it.

    If you don't drag something once in a while, it isn't low enough!
