I'm pretty sure a lot of guys are running stock shocks with lowering springs, so you should be fine there, and congrats on the wedding date!

On a side note, can you only purchase the SSC's directly from them, or can you get them from vendors as well?? I'm going to be picking up a set this week

Joe.

I couldn't get SSC's, the rear end sags too much. Is there any other brands that doesn't give us that sag?
