| If I go that route I have to buy dampers, cause my stock shit will go to shit in less than 6 months. I was looking for a cheaper alternitive. I guess i will just save some dough and do it the right way. Probably go with the pedders or something in a few months. | |

With the Pedders kit you can have it set to launch at 0' for the strip. Or you can set it for closer to 0' for better driveability on the street. Less sag, better tire contact on the pavement at launch. No more riding on an edge at launch. | |

after reading up on it i am for sure picking Stack sways over hotchkis. I was thinking sways. I want the pedders setup for the shocks. What did you hear about hotchkis and how are the stacks better? You might make me want to change my mind. | |

| the stack guys are a supporting vendor on the SRT owners website. they posted that they love and sell the hotchkis sways because they are the only aftermarket sways they still sell, but saw room for improvement. their bars have thicker tubes, both companys are hollow bars. both company's rears read 150% stiffer than stock, but the fronts differ. the hotchkis front is 30% stiffer than stock where the stack front bar is 100% stiffer than stock. | |

| Wow, i'm kinda late to this thread....When i got my pedders touring installed it was 1k out the door...It was more than just shocks and springs though...believe it came with a ass load of new bushings etc. so to me it wasn't that big of a deal....I'd say my car settled and is about 1 1/2 = 2 inches total drop...which might be a little to low for the grip front end...you'd have to measure it out...Shawn if you want me to measure it out lemme know....
