That's stock isn't it? I like the stock look, it seems to even out the lines. By the way, didn't the rear ends stand a little higher when they were new? Mine's a little low in the back too.

That looks stock to me, mine is about that level. If anything it looks a little high in the front, but that might just be the picture.
I agree with abolt..some cars looks really good lowered, but I don't think doing that really goes with the shape of our TCs too well.

I have the exact car and maybe it's just me but it looks like 1 or 2 inches too low in the rear?
I'll post a side pic of my car tomorrow (don't have my camera at work with me)

Agree with the other posts. Hard to tell since it's on a downhill slope but looks pretty close to normal.

It looks stock to me too. How many miles are on your car? Once they get miles on them and if the car has been driven down rough roads, the rear control arm bushings start to get cut up and dried out and they lose their stiffness, causing the rear of the car to set lower.

I HAVE 116,025 AS OF 1130 TODAY, ARE THE STOCK REPLACEMENTS BLUE??? FOR THE REAR??

Would it be best just to buy new bushings (PST or similar) or go with a new four link setup?

Hmm a little low.. a little high... when I opened the picture the thought that came to my mind was...
Aint these cars just PRETTY SumBitches?
I don't think I've ever saw one I DIDN'T like.

I KNOW (SOME) ABOUT THESE CARS BUT I HAVE NO IDEA ON WHAT THE HECK THAT YOU JUST SAID!! OR IT COOULD BE THE MGD'S (MILLER GENUINE DRAFT) TALKING TO ME. WHAT I WAS TLKING ABOUT IS THAT THE REAR SPRINGS ARE AFTER MARKET OR REPLACEMENTS BECAUSE THEY ARE BLUE AND THE FRONT ONES ARE KINDA RUSTY COLOR.
