You might want to delay installing the sway bar till you get the Differential mounts ready to be installed.Its next to impossible to get that sway bar installed without dropping the differential down some.Unless your really in a hurry for it I'd wait no sense in paying them to drop the diff. twice.

kool, let me know how your setup works out and I will do the same I see you have the rear diff brace I wish I would have gotten that too, but I forgot about it, I will have to add it later. post some photos of before and after. how low are you going to go me about 1/4 to 1/2 inch above the tires and the rear sway on the softest setting for now and the dampening on about 3-5 clicks on the coil overs

Hahahaha! Yeah I talked to Kelly like ten minutes after you did. I brought your install, and he told me he had just spoke to you. I'm glad you called, they have an amazing shop. You will see.

im not going to slam it but im going to need to get some more negative camber front&rear, im planning on getting some 18x8 +42-45 wheels. so probably less than 2" front and around ~1.5-1.7 rear.

I am glad to see other people are using Speedware. I have been using there services for a couple years! They are excellent.

Kelly Campbell is a really good contact to have for Speedware!!!

If you got your setup done by a shop, can you recommend them? Im over in the San Fernando Valley and looking for a good place to get this done, some near by.
