I have added the mopar lowering springs and LOVE EM.....
They are much more responsive now.....
Handle turns better...
Its not a "wave machine" in the dips anymore....
I have no rubbing with full turns in FWD or REV with the 22's.....
I had no bottoming out going over gigantic speed bumps at the grocery store.....
The ride is nowhere near as harsh as I thought it would be!!!! I remember what my lowered S10 was like and it was kidney jarring!!!!!
It has the same ride quality as what I remember the srt drove like in a test drive a few months ago....
I highly recommend this kit for those that are contemplating springs....

For those that do this and plan on installing the kit yourself.....PM me for details....
My friend and I did it different than the supplied instructions for the front.....
There is NO need to take the top linkage and top A-arm from the spindle apart and risk damaging the rubber boot.....
All you have to do is take the calipers off, use a pry bar to lower the lower control arm and the shock will slide right out!!!!!
The whole thing took about 3 to 4 hours with many breaks!!!!!
I will keep everyone updated on the life of the shocks with this kit VS the life expectency of the Eibach kit........
