So just wondering were sec cars from factory set lower than sel. I assume that they may had different spring rates? I was looking at my new sec vs my sel and stock it looks lower than my lowered sel.

The sel came with stock 2 f 3 r nubs. And I left those as is when I lowered the car. The sec has stock 1 f 2 r nubs .

I was thinking that eventually the sec would get same treatment of the sel but it seems like it will be a lot back AMD forth to figure out how it should sit.

I know I need new shocks in rear of sec. As it's quite wonky and I'll go with bilstei HD as i did with sel. Just not sure ibwill need to do the same h r springs

No .. Thanks goodness.

I didn't realize SLS cars had springs. Thought it was just a hydraulic shock
