Default heater hose mod along with my suspension overhaul??

Hey guy I'm tackling my suspension this weekend and probably early next week. 35/22 hollow strano sways, slp bilsteins, all rubber moog control arm bushings, and moog ball joints. Did not originally plan on lowering car, but I saw the heater hose mod had a quick question about it. Just wondered if the ride quality is gnna be crap without adjustable lcas and adj phr? I think the front is low enough stock, but think the rear could use the 1/4 - 3/4 drop? Let me know wut u guys think

Thanks again

you can stay stock with the lcas and phb if all you do is the hh mod... any more than that and you change the rear geometry and your rear will be cocked to the right and pushed back... but thats if youre going more than prob an 1.5" drop.. HH mod will get you 3/4 after it settles.. some have reported a little more but you can count on the 3/4"...

Yeah its my dd and dont want it much lower in the front, but would like to see that rear wheel gap close a bit. Anticop, thanks for the info. Just was not sure if that slight of a change would cause to much geometry alteration in the rear end.

as long as all else is in good working order, you will be fine doing the hh mod... good luck
