Camaro ss 1le eibach pro kit

Divinr · 09-15-2025, 10:07 AM

So i lowered the car on the eibach pro kit 0’7 drop and the car dropped almost evenly on all except rear left there is a 3/8 difference i re did the whole spring and nothing drove the car about 300 miles and aligned it and still nothing clocked the bushings as well, what could it be or is that just variance?

Just variance, not all of mine were created equal either when I did mine on my ZL1. Mine did end up settling closer to all square but you'll never be able to get everything perfect.

Do you by chance know approx how long did they take to settle?

I was once told, don't ever, EVER measure. Any car. EVER. ....over all the years, I've found this to be sound advice!!!!!!!!!

Do we know if the springs would cause a risk for potential leak on the magnetic ride system? Also with just the springs, how bouncy and upset is the car over bumps? Is the car better balanced overall, any track times that shows an upgrade over the stock springs?

I don't know that the springs are going to produce any better track times. Springs alone, and that they're not being matched to the dampers likely won't really do much. Track conditions on any given day, and of course driver skill will make more of a difference. On a car designed to specifically be good on track, like many performance cars are today, you gotta dig deep to really do better. Not saying it can't be done, but it's not likely gonna be a few bolt ons. -and then, are you skilled enough to take advantage? I know I'm not, lol.

As for the magride, shouldn't cause any issues, though in an older car.....they might need changing anyhow. I've heard 8 years. Mine are at 9. Fingers crossed! Speaking of magride though, anytime you disconnect the sensors, you'll wanna have the dealership (or someone with the hardware) reset the system. The sensors don't know if the car is lowered or not, but they DO know where they are in relation to the other 3 corners, so ya gotta reset 'em.

If you haven't already, you should perform a trim height calibration or pay a dealership/shop to do it so that the car's ride height sensors are accurate with the lowering springs. The MagRide suspension needs this to function optimally.
