I haven't dealt with shocks, yet. Of course, I plan to.

While I still believe the body lift is the optimal solution, it dosen't appear to be very practical.

I guess I'll investigate the rear coils. I need to find some with a spring rate a bit stiffer. Has anyone documented the spring rates for the popular coils? I know a few are progressive, so that will help a mostly street rig.

Looks like I'm digging into the archives, again... That's not a bad thing. A lot of fond memoried are stashed in there. smile <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
