Hey 1bad4dr...let Me Know How The Suspension Works Out For You
Seriously Considering It, But Am Worried The Ride Will Be Too Harsh. Hennessey Sets Up His Cars With A 1.5 Drop. This Seems To
Me To Be Just Right. If I Do It That Is Where I'll Set Her. Make Sure To Touch Bases With Me On This. Have Fun And Good Luck..

Big, Thanks, I only made the dicision about three days ago after hearing from some other guys at a different forum rave about them. They told me that there was little, if any change in the ride. Which was my main concern... They did rave about how much better it handles now and that the KW's are adjustable front and rear.... As low as 1.5"'s.... I am sure that I will like it. I will have a drive home review write-up and video. I have a friuend coming with me to shoot the vids. lol I will then hit the track on Saturday to get comparison numbers.

It didn't feel any harsher to me after I installed mine, but you definitely feel like you are more connected to the road. You get better feedback and you can really feel what your car is doing. I lowered mine about an inch all the way around and there is very little (and I mean little) body roll and is a big improvement on the already outstanding SRT8 suspension.

I was concerned about whether or not there would be enough of an improvement to justify the price. Well it was, and I think that it is my favorite mod.

My price was much cheaper than 3K, but I may have got a good deal since I just forked over 10K to GSM....
