Once we installed our new bushings ... And reinstalled the ASTs with springs... The ride height had dropped 2.5"......they (oem bushings) create that much bind.
The OEM rubber bushings are evil in all sorts of ways on this car.
Our suspension now is like butter without load on it.
I cannot wait for next week .... It's going to be a whole new car in Sooooooo many ways.

I hope I am not misunderstanding this...Are you saying a bushing change dropped ride height 2.5 inches? If this is the case what happens to those running on Swift springs and Koni Yellows? Just curious cause I may want to do this.
