heh...I knew what ya meant <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> dont know why...but even flexed on ramps and all the e-brake cable isnt pulled <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> but then again my baby was previously driven by a total machanical moron no tellin what he may have done!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />
she's going to keep the 27" shocks...just because they feel nice on her...she's getting jeep bump stops....and still going to do some sort of limiting strap/retainer/keeper...but not going to worry about that until I have time to take her out and play in some bigger stuff...still dont think I'll have her flexed that far but better to be safe then sorry <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> next will replace the front struts....but they are going to wait till I can get spacers/strut mounts for the front to drop the strut down a bit.
so far after driving her for a while with the jeep springs and longer shocks in the rear....she feels so much better!!! and she handles being loaded down much better now!! I dont find them to be too stiff at all the jeep springs seem to be perfect! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/coolg.gif" alt="" />
the Eibach springs in the rear were just too soft to handle a real laod of camping gear(can't fit much in the jeep so the kia has to haul most of it). <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
thank you both for your input <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
