I was actually considering the single adjustable QA1's and this reply from JDM made me change my mind to Koni's (mainly the comment about cold as I live in WI). http://s197forum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=375298&postcount=29
Then I happen to find a killer deal on some barely used Koni Sport rears for $200 shipped!

I have the following thus far and will know in the spring if any more changes are needed when I hit the track for the first time:

Steeda adj panhard bar
CJ springs (rears installed)
Steeda billet poly/poly LCA
CHE LCA brackets

Nice setup but I didn't you should lift the car by the k-member mounts. Any issues with lifting there?

Chris, great set up!!! And looks much better with the painted axle tubes. I just finished doing that to mine a few hours ago. :thumb2:

If I don't get a PM back by tomorrow on some Metco stuff, I'm just going with the BMR pieces. Seems to work for quite a few of you guys! :thanks1:



Keep the list going guys!!!! :beerchug2:

I have the full CHE setup on her now:

- Adj LCAs (Poly/Delrin on both ends)
- Adj UCA (Poly/Delrin on both ends)
- HD UCA Mount
- Adj PanHard Bar (Poly/Delrin on both ends)
- HD PanHard Bar Brace

- I also have the CHE A-arm brace w/ Trq Limiters, BMR Frt DS loop, and Coast 1pcs Alum DS.

I have the CHE drop bracktes (anti-squat) on the work bench, but I'm not sure I'm going to install them. I'm not lowered and she's always hooked fine at the track..

Alright what It looks like is the Steeda street and race LCAs for me along with the Steeda relocation brackets. Now to get that Adj UCA.. I'm getting adj everything because I have a spydershaft on the way and I'm gonna have half a heart attack if I start getting heavy vibration from that thing.
