I am not to educated on lowering a car..Can somebody tell me what is involved in dropping my 2000 tl and how much it costs...i would appreciate it...

 

Change your stock springs to aftermarket ones like Comptech or H&R or you can go coilovers. Depending on the brand, expect to paid between 200 - 300 for the part alone.

 

thanx a lot typesdragon, your car is hot kid.....so all i need is springs or coilovers...i heard it was more involved...With coilovers you can adjust the height rite??How much do coilovers run and what else do i need with the coilovers to drop my car?

 

basically like typesdragon said, all you need is springs to lower the car. you may, however, invest in aftermarket shocks at the same time. there should be no camber adjustment kit required, as the drop is not severe for the tl.

coilovers come as a complete matched package, springs + shocks. nothing else is needed. check the links on the top of the page under "suspension" for your options. coilovers are adjustable, i've heard it takes about 30 minutes to change the ride height on a tl. somebody correct me if im wrong. tein does offer a coilover set that can be adjusted automatically from within the car, but it is not available for the tl.

 

LiLDaVe, tell me which drop you like in these pics...and I'll tell you what type of springs/coilover it is and then you can go from there:

so can i get the comptech camber adj. which is listed at $162 and that will be all i need except for labor of course? And with that i can adjust the height at any time? And how about the skunk 2 coilovers that are listed for $280 on this site?All i need basically is to find any coilovers and get it installed rite?and i can play with the height...

 

peiqinglong....i like the drop in the 3 pic, the middle tl maybe because i have those same stock rims so it gives me a good idea of how mine is going to look...Whats gonna happen when i get new rims prob 18s?

 

The middle TL is using Comptech Springs. Once you get 18s...it may not looks so bad, but if it's a 40 or 35 profile tire...your gonna have a gap like stock again, just you'll be lower. The TL on the front with the Trafficstar rims has a 2inch something drop all around on 19inchs and he doesn't even completely clear the gap...although it does look really nice. I clear my gaps on my stock 17s and my height is 2.4 in the front.
