enjoy your new found snappy steering
dont forget level ground equal and correct tire pressure and no junque in the trunk

car has to be on flat ground. a drive on lift will work fine, ramps will not

i didn't pull my amp and sub out. way too much of a pain in the ass to do that. a couple quick corners today with the ss/tc rear shocks on. life is good!

Might put it up on the ramps and then jack the rear to make it level.
Just like in NASCAR

The powergrids are worth it. You dont have to keep replacing them you will notice a slight difference a little quicker feel on turns. They've been on the Koni challenge cars for awhile now as well as qwiks car mavens areas stiners lol but really they are tried and true tested harder than the other replacements.
