I hope this question does'nt get me in trouble, :-( will stock rear el camino coils lower a malibu wagon? and if soo,roughly how much?

I think the difference in the two springs is more weight rating than ride hieght. Look at the side view of my '78, I have wagon springs on the rear, it sits level all around.

It will lower you about an inch. The wagon springs have a extra coil over the camino stock spring. I took a pair of wagon springs off of mine cause I wanted it to set lower.

wagon springs are an inch to an inch and a half taller. I put a set of them on my elky.
