    heres stock





    eh i didnt even think about vfaq, i didnt think itd be a friggin ordeal. btw had i read the chiltons/haynes before the operation and not during, i couldve prolly saved a good 2 hours.

    and it rides great. im pretty sure my stock shocks/struts are dead, cause when i took them out, i can press them down and they dont come back.

    so of course the ride is 500x better. its hard to explain. its smooth on streets where it used to feel like i was riding on egay coilovers. but then on some spots you can definately tell its alot stiffer than it used to be.

    as far as cornering, i love it. body roll is like completely gone, it just sticks in the corners. i took one corner that used to squeal at 25 going 40 and it just hugged. right now im on 3 in the front, 4 in the rears.

    98spydert im curious how you change the rear settings while in the car. i set my rears then installed them, kinda set it and forget it. though if i ever wanted to stiffen/soften the rears up, im guessing ill need a couple mirrors and a stubby ass mini flathead and some good maneuvering. it was bad enough getting the tower bolts out with the crossmembers in the way.

    I don't remember having a problem adjusting the rears. Maybe I just did it by feel: 1 click counter or clockwise for each side. Not sure, sorry :)
