    The little things=100ths of a second that add up to the tenths that come off your ET.
    While I can appreciate the hard work and dollars that went into the making of the bushings it's probably cost prohibitive for most of us, although, now that I'm looking seriously into my suspension system...there's now tellin how crazy (money wise) I'll get with it.:D
    Good stuff to file for future refernce. Thx Stephen:)

    Yeah, I think they are a little too pricey......I got a little bit of a deal since I helped do some of the R&D work......

    I need to find a cheaper hobby!! :(

    Great addition

    Hey, thanks for all the R and D, blood, sweat and tears. We should be applauding anyone who wants to invest their time into improving the car that we all love. Have any of you have ever rebuilt the front suspension on these cars? With the coil spring out and the strut rod not attached the supsension moves freely. When you attach the strut rod it becomes very difficult to move by hand. This is a great idea and thanks for the development. Ashton
