I just read about it. Pretty rare to see that much hardcore Ford tech in "GMPravda" er I mean HRM.

Looks like a nice part. The claim that this setup somehow allows for a more comfortable ride with springs that allow more range on rough roads sounds like the perfect setup for the awful New Orleans roads. Another great aspect is that the ride height is fully adjustable with the turn of one "adjustment collar."

I haven't yet gone to the GW website to check out the price

I went to their site, but theres nothing there about it, unless I missed it. I'm sure its astronomical. Just have to see.

Wonder if it fits with headers?

It looks interesting.

I'd expect price to be around the $2500 range, give or take $500. Wonder if they'll let me trade in my stuff, $ for $???

what i want to know is did anyone see the shock tower bracing behind the coil springs? if that will work with the stock coil springs i may have to that, looks like it provides a lot of strength in that area.

Yes, looks like a billet aluminum 'Hat' almost. It looks amazingly similar to Dolfan's setup....at prob 3x Dolfan's eventual price Does look nice though, and the easy ride height adjustment feature/25lb-increment springs are a great bonus.

Have to see...I hope someone on a forum gets it and reports on quality and fit, esp with headers
