Yeah, I just learned about the remove to adjust thing. I didn't know all that. That ain't gonna happen. My whole point of going adjustable is to make it relatively easy to adjust it... especially since the Z has lifetime alignment.

I know but, without going into too many details on a public forum, it's not that easy to do. But I do get it. That's why I said I'd rather not do it if it's not right. I use to drop 10 G's on my truck and not bat an eye. Those days, at least for now, are gone.

By the way, alignments are free. ;-)

That is a place that you probably don't want to go for alignments. No such thing as a good quality alignment for free. Just buy all the SPL parts first and install them. You can get the coilovers later on.

They won't be once you put SPL parts on. No one at the "life time alignment" place will have a clue what to do with those parts. Ask BettyZ how that goes

Even better info there, thank you. That thought had crossed my mind as well. After research it's becoming more apparent I need to just stick with appearance mods.
