    Sorry, I don't know the rates for any of the holes. Even if you did have the rates of both products, I am not sure if that would really help decide between the two. If you had extensive data describing your vehicle, and suspension modeling software, and some track times to correlate them to, you might could predict what rate would be a good start. Then maybe you could choose which. The effectiveness of either will come down to trial and error/testing.

    back to the wheel lift subject
    do you think its soley the johnnyjoints or could the swaybar in question of contributed to the bind.

    would you think adding posi-links to each endlink on that montes swaybar package solve the problem?

    cool product we'll see sometime end of this year or early next year

    UMI extended travel mount coil over kit

    apparently Global west had a kit like since since atleast 2011 and used Penske coil-over shocks
    Need to cut a bigger hole in frame so shock can slip through

    The reason for a coil over extender bracket...when you lower a car no matter if its coilspring/shock or coilovers you loose suspension travel vs stock spring

    Sorry for the late response, I never received any e-mail notification on replies and I haven't been back here recently...Not sure, This year he is going with a whole new suspension so we will see what kind of results he has and if the problem was solved or not...

    Just looking at the picture the car looks way too soft in front (or the rear is to hard and/or the sway bar is too stiff or should be removed)

    Do not think it is the binding is caused by the Currie joints. The Currie spherical has just as much articulation as the DSE. Look elsewhere for the problem.

    my initial thoughts were swaybar bind ..in need of Ridetech posilinks or similar product and perhaps need of johnny-joint/rotojoint axle ear bushing kit
    weather right or wrong, both will fix or lessen issue

    These look like the Front D-52 2 piston brakes
    the bigger d614 95 impala SS pads fit in these no problem too
    if so they fit in my aftermarket 15in rims and my 14 in black steelies no problem, no clearnence or anything

    cant comment on all 14in rims obvously
