So my question is how much front end travel do stockers try to get. What kind of front coil spring are you looking for as far as length and spring weight.
I'm still running stock shocks all the way around on my Volare... Heavy Duty CARQUEST on the front. LOL My car started picking up the wheels when I started making more torque. It would be fun to see what it would do with some 90/10's, but nobody makes them for my application. (Not interested in spending big bucks on custom-made shocks... car works great already.)
