Dont use those on a Magnum. It will lower the rear to much from what ive heard. Mopar called me asking me if i sold any, or had any put on any magnums in our dealership (mopar wanted their number to tell them of the problem). Still havnt heard anything about a magnum lowering kit...

The thread I saw them on said something about DCX trying to work out a problem.
Thanks!
I was thinking about them because they are supposed to be a little shy of 1" drop. I don't want to go any more than that. Are there any other springs out there? How about the Magnum SRT8 springs, would they fit?

No it doesnt lower the backend at all. Trust me I know from personal exp. :-( It will have that oldskool "raked" look. They said those spring will only work on the 300s

Does your Magnum have the load leveling shocks?

I have the Mopar Springs and they lowered the car nicely about 1 1/2 inches all the way around. Here is a pic. You CANNOT lower a Magnum with the self leveling suspension. The dealer had to trade my self leveling for the stock RT suspension and redo my contract to delete it.

Correct me guys, did I read somewhere that the SRT8 Mag sits lower by about 1/2 to 1 inch. Why couldn't we just order them, if memory serves, there is another thread here that talks about them, like $88 each...

Looks Nice! How long ago did you get your spings? I got my springs when they first came out... and no it didnt have the load leveling shock. When mopar rep. called me he said the first ones that came out were wrong for the magnums. So now i only use the Eibach springs 8-)

They would probably fit, but I believe they are set up for the RT's/C....which have a heavier front end due to the larger engine
