I mainly put this up so that I can get together with someone that has a Hotchkis TVS so that I can compare the height difference from mine.The dude that I bought this from lowered the front by heating the coils...http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s187/Fltlander/Avatars/Pullinghair.gif I don't like it...can't get it aligned...I like the stance the way it sits but I want a good ride and be able to get it aligned. It's either scrap everything and go with Hotchkis or put Belltech or Ground Force lowering coils on it. I just want to compare ride heights...

Heated coils, wow, I haven't heard of anyone doing that for years and years. Must ride like a brick! Good thing is that they are easy to change out.

Surprisingly it doesn't...Rides pretty good on smooth roads it's when you go over ruff roads...then it feels like you're on water...very uneven ride...Plus I want to be able to get it aligned so I can put different meats under it the tires on it now are starting to wear.

Unfortunately not. In fact, I didnt make it to the track at all this year. The one time that I was planning on going to Cordova, IL my garage door opener fried and was locked out of the garage. I hope to make it up that was next year though.:burnout:
