Default ride height??

I was jus wonderin why does my 2 door kinda sit on a slant? I mean the front is significantly lower then the back. I no usually the bak is a lil bit higher. but is there a reason to this? or is sumthin wrong wit my suspension? I checked everything, everything seems to b ok in the rear end. I was jus wondering if it was designed tha way or sumn? kinda seems weird to me.

yeah for some reason thats just the way they are....maybe so you can put more weight in the back in winter without the rear dragging on the ground

The neon is FWD so you want the weight over the fron tires.

most lowering springs lower the front just as much as the rear...you can find springs that lower the rear more then the front, but it isnt that much of a noticable difference....usually about .2 inches or sumthing.....

so basically, unless you get good coilovers, or cut the rear springs, then its just sumthing us neon owners have to deal with

Buy front springs that lower the car about 1" and rears that lower it about 2" if you want it to look more even. I like the neon stance when it is lowered.
