Default Mopar springs now installed

I don't have any pics to post yet, but I installed my S1 springs yesterday morning.

It took about 3 hours and I couldn't be happier with the results. The ride height has dropped by quite a noticeable amount, but ride quality is still essentially stock. The car looks so much better now.

I took it over to my friends when I finished and parked it next to his 05 SRT-4. Needless to say, the difference is night and day and my car no longer looks like a 4x4 machine.

Next weekend I'll be installing welfare sways and traction bars and my new wheels *should* show up soon after so that my suspension/handling mods will be complete. Then I'll finally be able to move forward (literally) and do some more power mods.

I just got mine installed last week. Took me around 3 hours also. Great ride and a noticeable difference in ride height.

I like how the rear looks right now. The only reason I went with MOPAR springs was because it has been proven to work with 24.5 and 26.5 inch slicks with no rubbing issues (lucille). So looks wise it works for me.

Btw..You left just in time, no one wants to admit they got stomped on the freeway by a 14 second SRT. Worse by an Asian driver.

The Mopar springs look great. Glad to see so many people like them, and not replacing struts. Did you guys see the thread about replacing 2 brand new sets of struts in two weeks with Goldines? ha ha Now that is some funny stuff. 20,000+ on mine and still rolls nice.

Fast cars have rolled bumpers. When you have a fast car you will roll your as well.

Yeah rolling the bumper decreases drag, I need as much as I can get to slow me down!
