crappy cell phone pic but will do till weekend.
now to just replace the left front wheel bearing and she'll be good again. Not bad for 150k DD
still need to take pic but my when they took the old struts off the left rear on was seazied up in a compressed state thus my bad ride and messed up tread on tire.

It was a 2" drop over all.

LOL he got them from me its ok John, it looks real good man. They are Megans Racing springs on stock sxt struts, I got coilovers so I could go stupid low. How is the ride compared to before? Goto the junk yard and get a hub and bearing save yourself the trouble cause the aftermarket bearings suck.You should get a rear strut bar to tie it all together and some fresh tires.

well the front struts are the the stockers however the rears are brand new struts. My neon is an 01 and need a rear sway bar. 02 neon and up didn't come with rear sway bars.
So had to buy ones that could use the rear sway bar.
The front wheel bearing only 55.00 bucks so just going with a new one.
The ride is great I don't feel any bumps at all. I just have to enter and leave my shop at an angel otherwise my exhaust tips drag.

I'm sorry man I had no idea about the sway bars. How much did the rear set you back? What brand? I bet the ride is night and day and the ladies love when your car scrapes they think its sexy . hey let me know if you want the snowflakes one has a decent tire on it and you could have two full spares 50 bucks let me know I need to clear out that shed

Thanks for the offer for the snowflakes but I'm good.
