Default I need help adjusting my lowering

2007 ltz auto-ride.

Mcgaughys 2/3 lowering kit. Front Spindles and Rear lowering springs.

Well,the rear springs have settled and now the rear sits about aquarter inch lower in the back. Itdoesn't have that nice bulldog stanceand it's pretty annoying, you can tell it's lower in the back.

Should I get new springs in the back, or adjust the front...is it possibleto make it lower in the front if I have spindles??

Iwould really like another inch lower in the front or an inch higher in the rear.... either one.

Default RE: I need help adjusting my lowering

I too have a LTZ auto-ride , and am pic/illiterate, and had the same condition after the so called 2/3 drop - rear went down almost 5" and sat lower in the back.
Had to re-bend air ride adj rods - open them up again. Now I have it level.... but
you are riding with the air shocks pumpedway up to hold the rearend up. seems a little harsh. I am trying to find a modification to the rear springs,perhaps different springs or spacers on top of coils. not much luck yet.Not sure how you could adj front without changing springs now that you have done the spindles.
