Just wanted to say thanks!

I spent the last few days reading all I could about lowering my 95Z and what shocks / struts to use.

I went with BMR springs, they are local to me here in FL. I talked with Frank there and he was great to deal with. I also got their LCA relocation brackets and adj. panhard bar. I got the off the shelf Bilseins from Autozone of all places. ($365.90 with tax).

The only questions I have now that I have it all in the car is on the LCA Relocation brackets I went with the upper of the 2 holes. What would going to the Lower ones do? Also I did not measure the ride hight before I lowered it, could someone with a stock hight 95Z measure theirs and let me know. It does not look like it went down that much, but it did tighten it up a bunch. I have not really gotten into it real hard yet.

How long should I let them settle before I go get it aligned?

Thanks again for a great site.

the lower hole should be for 'improved traction'

I got my stuff aligned right after I put it on, I have a similar set up to yours. Maybe I should have waited..?

Yeah, reds right. If your car is lowered, go with the bottom holes. The uper of the two is to improve traction on a stock height car. The lower hole is more for our lowered cars.
