Suspension Recommendations Please...

you know my ride...kwv2s, sways, bwoody end links. Rides great and handles perfect...

 

kw v2 for sure I jus have springs an sways there ok bang for the buck plus im lower then john lol

 

Got a full set of Pedders poly bushings on now, on top of Hotchkis sways and V2's. Great for cornering hard. Weight transfer lag is now about zero. But if you do rough roads or dig ride comfort over performance its not for you.

Coilovers and sways give you most of the performance bump. Put bushings on after and you will say "wow cool thats better" but you won't be blown away by it.

To go on the cheap, do sways first. You already have good suspension. If you are happy stop. Then go with coilovers if you want to get a little better than the stock SRT shocks/springs. If you still want more and are willing to go with a hard ride to get it, blow a small fortune on the bushings and take it to the edge.

 

The end links made a diff in the way the car rolled in the corners. its much more stable now...it also got rid of a slight clunk i had in the front end.

 

John, what did that run you and how hard is it to install?

 

It Is Easy On The Lift.

 

Jmatts rear end suspension works like a dream. I just got to tinkering around with it today. Bud I got more stuff to adjust then you. And I am sure I will be adjusting it often to find the perfect spot. It also comes with 2 sets of springs so you have your drag springs and race springs.

 

Trust me...later this year when I start my new job in Houston I'm going to be a mod freak. I'll have 426, twin screw blower. JMatts' coilovers, and I'm gonna top it off with a 500 shot. And I'll throw on some spinners for good measure! :guns:

 

Thanks Ralph!

 

im surprised jmatt hasnt chimed in here yet

 

I just want to see the spinners on a 426 hahahaha bud you would love these coilovers jmatt has made they are a dream come true. With these bad boys even I can launch the car!!!!!

 

The links... you need those when you lower the car so it can be aligned correctly right? or am I thinking of something else.

 

X2 i thought he would be the first. Lets just say his product is second to NONE

 

the end links? So that they may be aligned correctly? Please elaborate Dave!

 

Ok, the cars are dam near impossible to align to spec when they're stock. Then when you drop them the tops of the tires are leaning in. Isn't there some sort of links that help with that or is it just the camber bolts/kit that I'm thinking of.

 

You've got me stumped buddy! Someone with more knowledge than me will have to chime in. Hey....what's with the management title? What does that entail?

 

I'm not really clear on that. But I think the gist of it is that I'm supposed to ride herd on you and Momo. Since staff can only delete on their own forums they made me management. :laugh:

 

Rick, didn't Mike from DMS talk about that in your Pedders thread or am I thinking of something else??

Dave, Precision Alignment did mine after the coilovers were installed and they reset the front cradle and aligned it up, no problems and it's in specs (I've got the align sheet if you're interested in seeing it?).
