Those struts were in pretty good shape....., sure you don't just need springs??

well.. I drove the car for a bit, with a job that wasnt giving me many hours wasnt working so I had to curb the car for a bit.. now im back in business. so I need to replace the springs? (without scarcasm please) I dont want to go and buy the wrong parts. I know i need the drum brakes and something to do with the suspention. however my memory isnt working right now.

No sarcasm.... the car had lowering springs in it...... Buy stock springs, it will bring it to stock ride height...

You need the right tools to change springs - if you are doing it yourself. Spring compressors - don't try without them. The energy in a compressed spring can seriously injure you.
