Actually this was not an expensive mod at all. The springs were about $300 and labor to install was $400. The rear links were about $80 and the labor to install was about $150. So all in all about $1K. Definately worth it! Looks so much better and handling is great!

Definitely on my mod list, all in due time. Thanks for the info!

Anybody know if the bank in Paradise, PA is still operating?? Could be a quick bank job.

looks great. Any change in ride quality? Probably makes ingress/egress easier.

Where did you get the rear links made? What was the exact size of these links for the 1" rear drop?

Contact Silver5 for the rear links. They are adjustable and you can shorten or lengthen them for the exact drop you want!

I also have a set of H&R springs (2" drop) for the front if anyone is interested...
