Unfortunately it will be a few months until we can complete this. I wish it were sooner. There is a good possibility it will require some welding too.

I hope that helps,

Awesome!

Viking is very well stocked and is usually able to ship immediately.

MN to FL is a three day zone for UPS Ground.

thanks

Got mine installed. The parts quality are A+. I have the setting at 7 clicks right now lowered 1" from stock. Drives beautiful! I have the 550 spring and going to lower it some more this weekend (might slam her in the front for the look).

Slammed her, looks awesome to me. Not sure i will keep it this low, at least not for long distance trips or cruise. Haven't tested out this set up on the streets, still experimenting with settings in my neighborhood.

Have any pics without the fish-eye (or wide angle?). Looks really nice. What are you running in the back?

Glad to see people trying them out, definately let us know if they keep working good for you, I'd like to get some for my car! I'm guessing a good street/street setup would use the 300lb springs?

I put 80 miles hwy on it today and the best the car has ridden in since I can remember mi have mine set to 16 clicks b/c of how low I am but I like the look and the way it drives. Going to it aligned to try and get camber back to stock for even tire wear after I do an autoX later this month.
