What wheels are those, what is the name...... Love <3 them....

What is exactly is the complaint........ Is the ride jarring or handling bad? I know my

handling (while swerving) is not so good right now, Anyone else experience this?

I hope to do the RK2007 from Tony later to try to help with that, then again I am only at 2 inches.

and the complaint is the car just doesnt take like "single" wheel bumps well keep in mind where i live in texas the roads suck!
BUT say i go over an intersection with a hump in the middle the car takes those beautifully but little bumps that only hit one wheel at a time are quite jarring...

I'm out of ideas w/o getting an undertruck shot. Try the spacer to see if that gives a little more travel. From what you've described it sounds like your sway bar isn't really working the way it should for one reason or another (lack of travel, binding, etc.)

Can't really tell but it looks like you're riding on the bump stops and your driver side spring is not seated properly. I'm also willing to bet those swaybar links are hating life right about now and will probably bend or break in the near future.

When you go back to install the endlink kit, trim the bump stops. That might help.

well those are the belltech bumpstops..... idk if they get any shorter i think theyll compress enough to hit the frame..
so maybe ill finish up the kit and get back to you guys...
and maybe cut the bump stop after that...

EDIT: cut the bump stops now if i go over an intersection i get a real loud clunk.. luckily I have spare belltech bumpstops WOOO
