Spring install and Bumpstop question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Anyone know of any install videos for a set of drop springs?

Does anyone have a pic of a before/after trimmed bumpstop? How much does the bumpstop need to be trimmed?

My dad and I installed Eibachs on my '95 Cobra back in the day. Didn't know to trim the bumpstops and I don't remember aligning it either but I might have.

When I get my Camaro I'll be lowering it pretty quick and will probably give it a try with my dad as well. This time I want to do it correct.

Eibachs does not recommend a bumpstop cut . I installed today and instructions say not to to cut bumpstop.

I have the Eibachs as well and talked w/their techs and was told NOT to cut/trim the bumpstops when using their 1" springs.Have had them on for over a month and no problems.
