Do I need to change anything when lowering my Z?
I might buy some springs and was wondering if I had to change anything in the rear end. Do I need to adjust the pinion angle or anything like that. Please educate me. I'm still new at this. I want to eventually get a nice stiff suspension for daily driving. SFC's, new shocks and struts, lowering, brake upgrades. These are my plans and I need to know the not so obvious problems and adjustments.
Thanx

Looks good.
A Adjustable Panhard Bar is recommended when lowering the f-body. It's purpose is to re-center the rearend. I do know of cars however that have lowered there car, and have left the stock PHB in place. YMMV.
Hope that helps.

P.S. If your looking for a new one, let me know if you find a good source on the net, My rearend is about an inch to the right.

Relocation brackets aren't toward the top of my necessary list. A quality adjustable panhard rod is definitely worth considering depending on how much you drop it and if you want to use a bigger wheel/tire. Best panhard rods I'd say are the G2 from LG Motorsports and the Unbalanced Engineering brand. Both of these use the highest quality rod ends and both of these shops build/supply for road race cars.

Mind you guys, that I'm not doing any kind of racing. This is strictly a street car. I just want an awsome stance with my Enkei's and gfx. My wheels are 17x9.5 with 275's all the way around. I just want everything to be adjusted correctly so that I won't have any alignment issues. So, are you saying I NEED to change my phb to an adjustable one. Do I need the lca relocater brackets to prevent any wheel hop? Tell me what I need to do to slam this sucka and roll straight.
