Any tips on lowering just the back?

Just found my old post. Here is what I wrote.

Done! Cut off half a coil on each rear spring from my PP. Car now sits perfect. 1/4 inch higher in the rear. Didn't even have to put in the rear camber bolts. Fell within spec for now. Car looks much better and rides the same. No complaints so far. No regrets! Took maybe 1/2 hour to accomplish.
Did you cut your factory springs or h&r springs?

So I ended up not doing anything, because when I replaced the front struts and springs with car quest units it lifted the front up some. Not as much as when I'd done the lift kit but enough that it looks about even. I'm going to wait a bit and see if it settles before I do anything more for now

Good idea. It will take a bit for everything to settle in.

Half a coil on pp springs or 3/4 coil on non pp springs is about perfect
