also- after fixing my fueling issue I was able to fill up and i notice a noticable list to the right. The adj sway bars will adress alot of that up front i know... but i cant see running shock extensions on my nitro crappers so i guess i will do shocks then springs. Yay.

If i land this account im working on im gonna say F it and go straight to coil overs and be done with it!
