yup yup Matt - Ryan and i can handle it... we did mine last week and Ryan's at the beginning of this week. and we won't charge 180 to do it either! of course we may charge something simply because it's a little work - but no where near 180!! that's robbery!

well i dunno if this is correct but i don't think you really need a camber kit in the front. i was told that the macpherson struts would minimize the tire wear in the front. the back however is another story. my back tires were practically slicks before i got a camber kit. although i have a front and rear camber kit now. if money is an issue, i've heard that washers do the trick in the back. up to you though. should be ok on 1.75 drop though so i wouldn't really worry unles you're gonna go lower. maybe some of the other guys can provide better info.

Matt - we'll hook you up!

as far as schedule:
we'll be in STL for NOPI Race Wars this weekend July 26-27
we'll be in Dallas for Hot Import Nights next weekend August 1-4
and then we'll be freed up until mid September so anytime after HIN should be cool!

as far as a camber kit: IMHO a camber kit isn't needed for a drop less than 2". However with a 2" or greater drop the rule is usually to go with a camber kit if possible. I'd say "no" but keep an eye on the rear tires and make sure they're not getting eaten up. each set of springs is different and you never know when they may have a bad affect on your ride. For example my SPRINT springs were supposed to be 2.25 in the back and ended up being well over 3"!!

anyway, talk to you soon... btw here's my contact info:
