I got tired of the faded stock ones. I want to lower it but I don't know what kit I should get. Any suggestions? It appears the rear is fairly low already so I am not sure what I should get. I am doing a kit not just springs if that helps.

The interior looks new, you keep it very nice. To lower it...BAT kit, scroll down to page 13. BAT You could go with the Koni/Eibach set up but it costs more than the BAT kit. Not sure how much you want to spend but the BAT kit is a very good value. Thanks for posting the pictures! Your tour is very nice. Phil 98 Silver Frost #2059

I don't think that will be low enough for me lol Maybe you can direct me to some pictures of tours with it installed that would be great. I have some more pics I can upload if you want. The leather looks better than it is. The car has 126k on it. I got the car pretty cheap, well cheap to me lol.

That car has a sub box in the back so it is lower then it should be lol. I have been looking at the ST200 struts since they have a 1 inch lower perch but I can't find who sells them. Are they still produced?

I'll try to find you a picture of the Koni/Eibach set up without a sub box, the rear will still look lower. Take a look around the suspension forums and look through the "stickies" at the top of the page. Phil 98 Silver Frost #2059

The stance of the H&R's is tops , IMHO - a bit lower in the front . I'll try to dig up a pic for ya . ~~~~~~~ Phil Black & Tan 2000 SVT Contour #2137 of 2150 35,000 miles & counting !
