Good questions. Adjustable means that you can adjust to varying track requirements. For the average non racer person, its set it once and forget it. The spherical joints are all weather and last forever. They are made in the USA by an engineer who worked with us on the Time Attack Cobalts, and he makes drop links for Porches and mustnags and Nissans etc...with the same eng links different attachments etc.

sure I can send you instructions, please email me john@powellraceshop.com. Do you intend to rent or obtain a spring compressor? For the front I can give you instructions for with or without. It is somewhat tricky to do the front springs without a spring compressor, but with care and an assistant its not a bad way to go. If however your car is older and rusty, I prefer a spring compressor as there maybe some repair work to be done cleaning and prefurbishing the strut tower and the mount itself.

I am not taking advantage of you as a Canadian, in fact we do everything we can to make it cheaper for you. USA guys pay more for sway bars than Canadians becuase I make the bars here
I cant help the border and I cant help the Harmonized Sales Tax in Ontario of 13% and I think your comment is bs for sayin that "a Canadian vendor is now trying to take advantage of their own people". In fact you are making me angry for such a remark. I help out as many folks as I can, whereever they live, and I dont appreciate your thoughtless comments.
My apologies. Disregard what I said. I didn't realize they weren't made locally and by that I mean in Canada. I understand what you are saying. I suppose I should rather blame the government for the stupid taxes and laws they have.

Accepted. I hate the taxes here, but then I think back when I had a shop in Wixom MI to build Corvette Challenge cars, and the health care benefits scheme for each employee was going to be 1200 dollars a month....

so....

Ya they were supposed to go to CED this week, now its middle of next. But I am sure it will work out fine. I am happy for Hyperco their business is rocking, makes a nice change from all the gloom out there, Citicorp just announced 11,000 folks fired. wow

Good posts with questions from you folks I was going to do a mailing to you but the day got away from me. The springs are enroute , arriving in Illinois tomorrow and Tom will try to get them out the same day or Monday. They are doing inventory tomorrow at CED so thats an added complication, but Tom and Dan dont do the actual counting, an outside company does that... but be happy, they shipped as expected and will be out to you folks at the latest Monday.

Thanks for your patience...

Front Spring:

Rear Spring:
