LOL Scott no worries there
Hey guys,
If you don't mind, could I come and watch or even better, give you a hand this weekend? I want to see how involved it would be as well as learn about how to adjust the shocks from the masters. PM me when you guys decide on time and place.

Dang I want in on the install party... you guys got it done in almost half the time it took me haha. 4 hours ain't too shabby at all. Trying to get the fronts out was a PITA but a little elbow grease and some actual grease and they finally slid out. I also had to jumped with two feet on the rear hubs to get the back out. Best workout I've ever had.

Let me know how the install goes guys, I'll be out of town this weekend .

I think it'll e more the ride that will help you decide, so far I am quite happy.

LOL Ross, should've seen my solution to getting the fronts out
We were lucky, I got the fronts set to pretty much where I wanted and even the second time we adjusted (right after install they were too high for my tastes). Then the rears were set too low, rubbing all the time, so I raised them up a little and much better now. Pretty much perfect.

I completely agree bro, I think we are fortunate to have some of these great vendors here and it's even better when we get a chance to support them

Your ride height looks perfect too. Not too low but low enough to give it that nice aggressive stance. I bet you were able to just pull up on the fronts and push down on the rear hub to get the coils out eh. Heck it wouldn't surprise me if you could bench press the entire car .

Oh and out of curiosity, what dampening settings (clicks) do you have it set on?
