I needed some new shcoks since mine are currently dead or dieing. So, I went to advance auto and saw factory non-adjustable replacements for $281 a piece for the fronts and $84 a piece for the backs. :(

I did some shopping and found the D specs for $483 for all 4 corners. These are fully adjustable (16 way). So, I got the full kit for less than the price of the stock fronts. :yep:

These will be going on tomorrow with more pictures and a write up. Enjoy, I know I will.

Time to read the tuning manual that came with them.

Success!!! Car handles like it's on rails. Took a well known exit at a speed that I won't say.:surprised: The thing is money.

took about 4 hours but about 2 of them was getting food, making a Home Depot run and some grinding. Dang rear strut tower brace.

I started out on setting 4, 0 being as firm as it will get. Took it for a ride and it felt pretty good. Set it to 3 in about 2 minutes and that's how it's staying, for now atleast.

I'll get some pics and a little write up later tonight.

The whole thing would have been done in under two hours if we didn't have to mod the rear strut brace. on a dificulty scale of 1 - 10 I would say 3
