Question Lowering el Fairmont

Hey, just wondering if anyone out there have lowered there fairmont and had any problems with bottomening out while towing or alot of weight in the back?

I am keen to lower my fairmont but also have a boat that ways a bit over a tonne and i am worried i will have issues whilst towing?

If you have lowered it and had no troubles how low did you go. eg king springs? Should i lower the front more than the back or something?

You should PM Pully6 about how lowered EL Fairmonts like to tow things :P

Make sure you get shocks to match if you plan to tow. My shocks are stuffed, but A) I don't do much towing, and B) I don't care that they're stuffed ;) 95% of the time it's just me in the car anyhoo.
