your suspension is bad. their is no reason but its old, suspensions get old and tired and sage, like alot of other things in life as for your possi, i don't know nething bout it so i couldn't tell ya. all i can say is why possi on a 2.3l. but u want to go for it. i believe it aint hard, just time consuming maybe.

well I dont think you should need a posi for 2.3L, I would save up the the cash for a V8 swap, Then get the posi trac, Well if youre car is bottoming out I would guess youre coil springs are no longer good.


Good Luck
