I installed new spring assisted rear shocks on my wagon the other day. unfortunately, no pictures. Could grab some when I go to do my water pump soon!

The other day I got mine some new shoes, center caps, trim rings, and used some Simple Green to clean off the tree gunk. Didn't get all of it, but it looks worlds better.

Been working on installing a New Waterpump/Waterneck but have gotten into some snags. I accidentally ordered the wrong clutch fan (non thermal) instead of a thermal one then I found out the waterneck is cracked & that I need a special tool to remove the power steering pulley. Just going to order the parts & then wait another week to get it done & over with. Good thing I'm on EI right now or this would've been worse.

Installed a new fuel pump, changed the oil and battery. Took her on a well deserved romp through town. Then finally washed her.

Has anyone replaced rear springs and shocks on a 91-96 sedan with the rear springs and shocks from the WAGON??They are 1 inch shorted and wider and rated for 200 more pounds each.. I have on 91 LTZ and 96 with the LT1...with no problems.

What would be the purpose of doing this? There are so many options availible spring wise for these cars you should be able to order just what you want for really cheap.

A number of years ago, I replaced the front springs of my Olds with some Eibach springs with the drop. Since the spring set was designed for a sedan, I went with air suspension in the rear.
So I have a set of brand new Eibach rear B body sedan springs that has been sitting in my garage for about 10 years. If you are interested, i'll let them go cheap. they are like 1 inch shorter and stiffer.
