I told you what it was lol it was after Impulse messing with it, it's rubbing...Chris looked and saw what it was but I forgot what he said. He says it's nothing to really be worried about but it just bugs me so I want to fix it.

I'm sure that there are a lot of guys on here with a lot more experience than I have, but I get what Metallic is saying. Why not release some numbers? Why not let people make an informed decision about what they want to buy? The majority of us on here are not planning on competing with you all to build the next GM time attack car, we just want to not waste our money and make decisions that we think are knowledgeable. If you tell us spring rates, ride quality, and price, we can decide if we want eibachs or pedders or etc. Otherwise, we have to sit here and wonder if we should spend $200 extra because some guy on the internet says it's better. You say it was hard work so you don't want to share? Okay, how about at least something like, on this track my avg time with pedders is X and with eibachs is X and with SSC's is X. That would be enormously helpful to autocrossers.
I'm just saying that there are a lot of good how to's on this site, and definitely a lot to learn from people like northvibe and qwik, but at the end of the day seeing that pedders will decrease your time by 1s at the track with stock ride quality is more beneficial than hearing that some guy likes them and there is definitely a lack of hard data on this site.

Does anyone have static ride height pictures of the Pedders units? I spoke with John and he recommended the Pedders springs and I trust his data 100%. I've been building and racing cars my entire life and John knows his stuff. I've been debating on coil overs or springs for my 2009 SS/TC and I think I'm going to get the springs to start!
I'll also be using the OTT Hardcore bar and some of their other goodies per Johns recommendation! Good people!!!!
Kind regards,

Laptimes directly after the ALMS race were 3-4 seconds quicker than earlier in the year. etc etc...when the track rubbers up lap times come down. When lap times come down, steering loads go up and Delta power steering goes home for lunch. Until you folks can tell me that your power steering is losing assist in your outstanding track work WELL you are not going fast enough
so no hard numbers for folks not wanting to pay for that information. Pedders do not release their spring rate info, and neither do most other spring manufacturers of oem style rising rate springs. So I did it myself.
You cant have that data because I have no interest in giving it out for free and no way to price it anyway.
But I did give in this thread hard numbers to support why Pedders are so good compared to a coil bind lowering spring. What more do you want for free?
Wow I asked one question about everyday ride on Pedders and It blew up into this. The main reason I asked was because I had tried four other sets of springs and cant say they were what I was looking for. It can get a bit expensive to buy new springs and then have to sell them for half what you pay because you dont like the ride or handling of them. I had only read good things about pedders but wanted opinion from those that had them on already (thats all)!!!!!!

the guy who did that got a permaban so watch out Stiner....when the sheep lie down in the fields near you is it going to rain? Or are they just afraid of you?
