lowering springs and sway bar installed on 1BADLS4

I decided to do a little work on the Monte before spring came. I think it looks much better and it does handle much better. I used Canuck springs and did a solid front sway bar. Now it feels planted in corners and hopefully will translate to better track times. Mickey Street comps will be on hopefully next week.

Well using the quotes on my phone isn't working so...

Hi Mike It has been a long time. I recently got a second job so I haven't had a lot of free time on my hands lately. I still check in from time to time when I can to make sure I keep tabs on what members are doing on here. Thanks I appreciate it. I hope all is well with you also.

Thanks Matt. I love the new look. It even still rides very well using the stock struts. I was pretty skeptical resuing them but I guess they still have a lot of life left in them.

Do you also have the strut braces for the rear and front? I've heard they too do wonders for handling

yes I have had them for 4 years or so. They stiffen it up a lot and help but there was still a lot of body roll on those stock springs. It feels much more confident in the corners now.

How is the ride and is there any bottoming out Zach?
