Are you two just running a resonator no muffler? I have the Hahn exhaust but I've thought about removing the muffler to see what it would sound like. I have a catted downpipe too so it probably shouldn't be too annoying.

Yup no mufflers here, just resonators. David has a bigger one though, and we're both catless.

It's possible that it can happen regardless of springs. Having a bigger/stiffer bar increases the likelihood. They're also called anti-roll bars because of this characteristic.
lol indeed this is possible i just went and tried today and this is what happend.

^I'm going to have to try this when it gets a little nicer out so I can check it out...too much packed and unshoveled snow on the ground to see if it works right now...Can't wait to upgrade to SS/TC struts and shocks and Pedders...hopefully I'll have them before May.

ok, i see these, from what you guys are all saying, is that pedders are the best all around springs for stock strust/TC struts....would you also consider these as best for after market struts as well? i really liked the Tokico D-Specs for my cavalier....and i see the ones for Cobalts are "Coming Soon" wanted to know how these will work out. i want, something that will lower the ass end nice and level, have a good ride, and handle better than stock. looks like drop wise pedders are not for me from what everyones saying they dont lower much....is there anything then that will do desired and work nice on an aftermarket strut?

If you're looking for a nice drop, spend your money elsewhere. But if you're looking for springs that will ride well for a DD and you're looking for improved performance in AutoX and Road Racing, then look no further. You can't have everything. There is no one spring that does it all (and is still reasonably priced).

No exhaust on video sounds good....unless you have a high quality camera which I do not. I'm down in the LA/OC area, where are you Berto? Aren't you in the high desert?

:hehe: you're in a whole different category Bryan.

On the plus side, i found out last night that i will never again voluntarily change brake rotors on a 96 Bronco.

Ridiculousness.

Put perfectly...however, if what people are saying that the drop of the Pedders is close to Sportlines (just a little less in the rear), then I for one don't see the problem because that means they get rid of the 4x4 Colorado look.

As I have said probably 15 times already in this thread...I want my Pedders and SS/TC struts/shocks...will have money sooner than I thought though. YAY!!!

I was thinking of going side exit just because it is cheaper. However I dont want to be very loud how loud would you say yours is? my DP will be only 3" and im not sure if it will be catted or not im close to an e test. anyone know what the biggest possible resonator you can fit is?
