I wish I got a better angle of the "before" pic. The angle was a little high so the difference doesnt look as big as it is.

BEFORE:

I have to see it in person, to be honest there is no way in hell that looks like a 2"drop. Maybe its the camera angle like you said.

I dont think its a 2" drop either. Thats what the website says but I doubt it is 2". There is a difference in person and I like the way it sits now. I know for sure it is lower because before I could go over speed bumps with no problem and now I have to pretty much idle over them or else ill scrape the hell out of the bottom of my car.

Lol I got the pedders shocks/struts and lowering springs too. Adam installed them at the same time he installed my sways.

I'm sure pics do no justice. If its anything like Anthony's car then I know it looks great! Anthony's looks super aggresive.

I was finally able to test them out yesterday and there is a HUGE difference over the stock sways. On an exit ramp by my house there is a really sharp half circle and I usually can only take it at 40mph before I feel my car start to lean and go off track a little. Well Yesterday I took it at 60mph with no lean at all and I couldof went even faster but there was a car ahead of me so I had to slow down. I am EXTREMELY happy with these sways. The pedders touring suspension probably helped out a bit too but I know the sways helped out the most.

Tom, I think if you set your sways to the middle hole, you should be fine. Thats where mine are and I didnt get any front end plow. The car felt like it was glued to the road.


i wont say stack sways were my best mod yet, because i get my blue tops installed tomorrow and we will see what that does. but i will say that sways are now on my list as a mandatory first mod for any car i will ever buy in the future.

Its the exact same shocks/sways and springs as Anthonys car. Id say its probably closer to a 1" drop maybe 1 1/4".

Yeah I couldnt believe the difference that the sways made. I cant wait to go bend some corners. I also want to try that exit ramp again.

i dunno how much install is supposed to be if you had to pay. me and Adam did it at his old shop and i slid him some cash for the lift usage. its much easier at a full service shop. the front is easy, back is hard.

Thanks Shawn! Joey...your ride will still settle some more I think....I measured mine right at 2" all around but you have to remember I also have two 12"s and my big ass in my ride to help settle the springs.....
