1995 Impala SS - Best way to go?

[Gator]

I have a 1995 Impala SS currently riding on Bell Tech drop springs. I was wondering the best & easiest air suspension for it. I want to be able to drop it lower then it rides now and be able to pick it back up for highway cruising. I am running 17" s on it right now, but I will proably move up to 18" or 19" later on. The shock wave looked like an easy installation but I am not sure if it will give me the drop I want. Any suggestions?

Any of our kits will give you pleanty of drop, 5-6" fully deflated. Which is why we usually recommend not using drop spindles. I would use the stock spindle. Ride height will be about 3" lower than stock. With the Shockwave you will just have to do a little trimming around the spring pocket. With your 17' s the front spoiler will be about 1" off the ground deflated.

I have the Shockwaves on my wagon. It required the same amount of cutting as the regular style bag setups I' ve seen. It' ll drop you as low as you can possibly go w/o dropped spindles; you' ll be resting your frame on the lower control arms. You' ll have about 1.75-2" of space between the top of the wheel opening and the top of your 17' s. If you want to lay crossmember on the pavement, then you' ll need spindles regardless of what style bags you use.

You can see pics of how it sits on my website or in the the customer cars gallery.
