My suspension upgrade

Just finished installing a set of Koni Sports, Ground Control CC plates, FRPP bump stops, Steeda Sport springs and BMR LCAs and Adj. panhard bar. I believe I'll need a set of LCA relocation brackets, so I'll pick up a set of those in the coming weeks. I'm pretty happy with the outcome.

It's probably an inch or so lower all the way around. My first pic shows the old set-up on the left and new set up on the right.

Thanks! I did a bunch of reading before my purchase and your sport springs seemed to offer exactly what I was looking for. I'm very impressed with the ride quality...hard to beat.

Well, actually I think I was at about a half a tank when I adjusted it. Funny how things work out some times.

Excellent point - I did not do this at first and had to readjust my panhard bar. Minor issue but a nuisance. Good advice!

What wheel and tire size are you running? That looks fantastic, great stance! Also happy to hear about the ride quality with the Sport springs.
