Default Bullitt suspension pack

Just wondering what you guys thought about this kit: The drop is about in my allowable range and the price doesn't seem too bad. Thinking about gettin it for my summer mod (perfomance > visual)

i like it, it lowers the car but not so much that you scrape a ton, and it doesnt really hurt your weight transfer which is really nice for me.

That is the same setup I have. I like it. Don't hope for a big drop though.

I hear good things about the kit. I wanted a bit lower so I went with the C-springs and just added the Mach 1 shocks and struts and I like it.

Damn, oh well, I emailed the place i ordered from with some questions and within minutes they replied. Yes...an online company actually has customer service. I guess thats worth a little extra. I can't do a big drop b/c of my driveway, or I would have ordered H&R's long ago.

I know I can do the rears, fronts bother me a little. I've read where you need to scribe the stock c/c plates and whatnot to keep them in alignment. Prolly like anything else and won't be to bad once you dig into it......i hope.

Struts suck to install....make sure you have all your tools before hand....damn 24mm nut......and the screw driver and wrench technique for the top which I made my own tool to do that...lol....dive in and save a few bucks its not fun but not terrible

I have sockets all the way up to sized I've never seen bolts for and all the tools to do it minus the air gun. If anything I'll do the rears myself and have the front done. I haven't found any instructions online for the front swaybar removal so if you have a link please post. I kinda like to research the hell out of an install before I touch a wrench. A mental walk thru can be a big help.

install it yourself... i thought the fronts were easier than the back... i did the front of my car by myself with no help and no airtools. i did the back with two friends later that night and we had airtools. dont worry about scribing lines because you'll need to get an allignment anyway ($50) and they will fix it.

I bought mine for $300 still in the box. Got a great deal. I paid a shop to install. I think it was around $200 with alignment, but I don't remember.

Those of you that know me, know that I usually outsource my installs. It is simply way cheaper for me to pay someone that loose time to do it myself.

Sometimes I hire a friend of mine and I work with him. That way I learn, but he says he charges me more if I help. - LOL
