Looks nice, let us know how it rides.

Where'd you get the springs from?

the ride is great. there's not much difference from stock. it's still a pretty smooth ride. it handles a little better now too. i'll be able to test it out better tomorrow. i'm sure i won't be disappointed.

Looks hella sweet...but did the back get lifted up a bit...I thought it was lower w/ the stock springs on the backside. Maybe I'm trippin' though. LoL

it's actually still pretty much the same height in the back. if it's any higher, it's such a small amount that i can't really tell. after lunch, my fiance and i are going for a good ride to test out the springs. it should be fun.

Taken out of context, that's funny.

haha, yeah, i didn't notice how that sounded until you pointed it out anyhow, the springs are awesome. it's reduced body roll a lot. it's also reduced squatting when i accelerate hard. they're not real bumpy at all. still rides pretty close to stock. definitely worth $152.
