Thanks for this tip ...I changed mine out yesterday and this is exactly what I was looking for.

yeah I am still running this setup. it is perfect for the nasty roads here in cali. I kept the stock shocks just in case I felt I needed to go racing someday. anyway I have always had rear wheel drive cars and my butt dyno tells me to keep it stiff up front and a little softer in the rear (with in reason) based on total horsepower you have to work with. (come in hot and leave with everything you got.) ha ha or something like that
