So, I read that it doesn;t matter whether or not you cut the front bump stops when putting in the SWIFTS. Some people have, some haven't. God I hate this forum sometimes. Everyone is a genious, and will argue to the death about every subject.

Peter: Hey, what the hell are you doing in my house?
New Owner: Your house? This is my house, my wife and I bought it from the bank.
Peter: But I've still got another day to pay back the loan.
New Owner: The bank said it wouldn't matter because you're a fat dead-beat loser.
Peter: Fat dead-beat loser? Well sir, while I may not agree with what you say I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

oh yeah i just meant the car itself is an VIII instead of a IX... but that shouldn't matter. His suspension will be the same as mine... in fact those struts have been intimate with my springs. Does that turn you on Timz???

Yes, I see that. But I just wanted to check to see if others have or if was even necessary. If it is not necessary great, but I do not want to find out afte rteh install that they shoudl have been cut.


Marshall- you are wrong about telling me I am wrong. My friend said a statement and there is no way he was wrong. And being his friend means I am not wrong either. Maybe instead of telling people they are wrong, get a bunch of friends who are not wrong ever. And then we can talk.

I rode around for 3k miles, and the original owner for 1.5 years with them without issue. I think you will be ok.

Turn me on....???....I am always aroused

Well, I did get the pretty blue SpecR's not the red sport machs. So, before I assemble the IX struts to these, I want to confirm if it is necessary. If it helps, I will. If it doesn't make a bit of difference, than I won't.

I go read more now....

I am also jealous. I might move to the Spec Rs if the new struts dont help the body roll.

I am also doing a bunch of bushings this winter. Luckily greg is getting a press so i can do the anti roll kit
