Default DG bolt-ons

Don Goetz, bolt-ons.

i went with bolt-ons because it's just a daily driver and the weld-ons are a bit more due to the welding shop cost. just bolt them on, it's that simple.

ground clearance loss, zero, can't even see them from the side.

the best way i can describe the difference is this. imagine driving around with your tires with about 15psi, (without sfc), then inflating them back up, (with sfc). the feeling of the tightness is the difference i felt after the install.

i probably felt more of a difference because i don't have any other suspension/exhaust installs. i'm sure with new springs/shocks and the rumble of a catback you might not feel a big difference if any.

no matter what brand/model you buy, convertibles need a little bit more suspension stiffness.

I bought kenny brown double diamonds for my 97 ta and also my 99 ta non verts.They made a huge difference I thought no complaints at all.
I cheaped and went with bmr weld ons for the wifes 96z28 vert.I am not happy they made zero difference that I can see. I want to take them off and put on kenny browns or a very similar design to kenny brown if can't get them anymore.

So what was wrong with Kenny...anymore news on that..?
