07+ Lowering kit prototypes...

[Dingo]

K, the final product is on and installed. I took a few quick pics tonight from different angles. They'll settle some in the next week and I'll get real final pics then.

1. Are you gonna do more testing before Selling these?

2. When can we expect them to be available for Shippment?

3. Did you settle on a price yet?

4. Any measurements available?



LOOKS Good!

 

[Dingo]

In order...



1. No.

2. 4-6 weeks after payment. Each set will be made to order.

3. I will later this week when I can sit down and do some calculations.

4. In a week or so when they settle.



Incidentally, anyone interested in purchasing them... They will NOT come with directions. This is on purpose. These are NOT something for a driveway mechanic to install. They should be installed by experienced professionals. I'd hate to see anyone hurt by attempting this install without the right tools and experience. These springs can KILL you if you don't know what you're doing. If any shop of your choosing has installation questions, they are more than welcome to call me and I'll answer any questions they have, free of charge.

Hows the ride quality? still could be lower IMO

 

[Dingo]

Rides like stock, but with less body roll.

 

[Chris Kulbaba]

Any other adjustments needed other than changing out the springs?



Estimated price right now? (Take a high guess if you can)

 

[Dingo]

No. That's why it's taken so long. I don't like variables. And $600-$700ish, I'd guess. Like I said, I have to sit down and figure it all out.

 

[Dingo]

Here are some before and after pics. Remember that the new ones haven't yet settled.

Looks to me like After settleing these may end up at:

Front is 1.5"" lower

Rear is 1.25" lower



Sounds good to me!

 

[Jon Richmiller]

I'm betting the lowering kit will look twice as good on Adrenalin with it's lower body panels all the way around.

 

[Chris Kulbaba]

Richie, I was thinking the same... however, the wheel flares on the 07 model might be a little more into the wheel well where the STA doesn't have the flares.



I am interested in these, but I'd like to see them on an STA, so Doug, hurry up



haha...

 

[D Potts]

XST: haha Yeah I know, Just waiting to see the final price......onec That happens I have to run it through my Accountant to see if the funds are available!



Looking forward to seeing them on an STA as well!

Here is a Photochop of what I expect it to be once the springs are installed!

Dingo, any updated pics? A Direct side shot would be helpfull.

 

[Dingo]

Gotta give 'em time to settle...

 

[Chris Kulbaba]

Any updated pics Dingo?

 

[D Potts]

The Springs are prob still pretty fresh to get pics any different! More measurements might be possible though to see how quick they settle!



Still waiting on a price too! Dingo have you sold any to ST owners yet or are you still waiting?



I know that XST and Myself are Anxious for these.....Please be patient with us. We get a tad excited about the STA mods sometimes!

 

[Dingo]

They're already settling... Like I said... Patience is a virtue.

 

[Robin Cox]

Looks good Dingo, like the idea of better handling. I have 285/55-18 tires on my ST that just barely clear now. Will lowering it still let the wider tires clear?

 

[Dingo]

I'm surprised they clear now.



No, it won't affect the tire fit at all. I have 275/55/18s on mine now.
