Yeah, I yanked them off when I was back from Iraq for R&R so I could ship them out to a party that I traded painted mouldings with!

I didnt know you had coilover conversions:eek: Im guessing you cut your spring perches off and are on the lowest setting right? I am planning on cutting my perches off. I am running koni s/a and will be running 550r/440f. What are your rates and struts?

This is basically as low as i can go, granted the interior is decently gutted but i dont think that would make that much of a difference. As for rates...440f/545r 6" springs on bilstein sports

Looks good Tony. I dont want to go too low anyways considering the roads around here and the shocks are not shortened. Anybody think I should cut the bump stops a bit to help avoid bottoming out the shocks frequently?
