I haven't had stock eye hangers in so long I didn't know what the "stock" position is, just relative to what I have. I do know that I may need a shorter shock in the rear which is available in Bilstein. The driving impressions so far are excellent. My track experience tells me these cars are sensitive to rear height as it throws off the balance of the car dramatically if the rear is too high. You notice this more at higher speeds and corner entry. I like the way the springs are made, because they are beefier in the front segment which is important for wheel hop and they are fairly flat. The geometry part comes mostly in the bracket. Lowering blocks and changing the eye height will do almost the same thing for guys who don't want to spend the $$ on the springs. As it sits the front K is 4.5" off the ground. The headers and exhaust are TTI.
The front suspension is stock configuration with nothing exotic, 1.04 t bars, 1.125 bar, heim jointed strut rods, nylon lower arm bushings, stock upper arms with offset bushings and bilsteins. I am waiting for the dropped spindles which will help pick up the front roll center, as it has to be underground the way it sits now..I am also looking forward to proper lower bump clearance and feeling the proper preload on the front bars which should increase the perceived rate considerably. From there I am switching tires to Nitto NT-05s. An alignment and I'm ready for Thunderbolt in April.
I've had the Dodge decals on for some time. I took them off briefly as I repainted the sides a couple years ago. I have an extra set if anyone is interested. BTW, XV doesn't make anything for the As.
