    Lowering caps question for Gen 2

    Just purchased a Gen 2 RT/10 (1999) and wanted to know about lowering caps, I installed BC coilovers on my Gen 1 and loved the ability to lower enough for 19"wheels but I'm keeping the Gen 2 on stock 18" wheels and just want a bit lower in the rear particularly, anyone have them installed and how much did you get out of them.
    I would be happy with 3/4"

    02 GTS spring caps with GEN V wheels 18/19, very happy with the setup. recommended by Jon B at parts rack, also running spacers on the rears.

    we got about 1.5" with Eibach and caps, so if I remember it was about 3/4" each on our 98 RT10, but, when we changed the wheel/tire combo to 345/30-19 (rear), it was too low, too tight in fender well, and "pushed" the front even lower... so removed the caps. Next step, we'll do the BC's.

    Thanks again, was looking to loose just a bit of wheel gap and nothing more, sounds like caps are gonna do just that...
    Loved the BCs on my Gen 1 with a big difference in ride
