xlr82sxs Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 thanks man! i kept the stock shocks and to me it rides better than stock. not as much jounce when going over curvatures/bumps in the road. i noticed on the highway i had a slight bit of driveshaft vibration from a 70mph punch. it only lasted a second or two though. i have 2* shims, but i think i'm taking those out tonight and see if it gets rid of the vibration or vice versa.

sprayed99 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 i would like to know also. if you did shackles and hangers did it take you long to remove the hanger rivets? Yes shackle and hangers.

Jond983 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 niceee ....now you need 22's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr82sxs Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 (edited) i'm looking at getting the 22" asanti af123's. but the price tag on those are a little out of my price range at the moment. so my 20's will do for now..

Jond983 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 what kit did you use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr82sxs Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 djm's 2/4, front lower control arms and rear hangers and shackles kit. we had a plasma cutter, so it was easier to get the hanger rivets out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jond983 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 that looks really good..i'm a seriously look into that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlr82sxs Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 thanks man! you'll love it.. it wasn't as hard as it looks, but be prepared if you use a plasma cutter for the rivets. otherwise use a cutoff wheel and a power tool. second option will take you considerably longer, but you don't have red hot plasma eating your flesh.
