i just purchased a set of the s. tech's as well and will be installing them over the winter.i cant wait to get the srt lowered so it doesn't sit like a 4x4 any more.The 1.8 front and 2" rear should hopefully look killer with the 225/45-17's. I will post pics in the spring when she comes out of storage

Well, I got the springs installed today. I didnt have my cam, and we were pressed for time at the shop, so I really had no chance to get pics. I will get some after Pics as soon as I can. The ride is still nice with the exception of a few pot holes, and the handling is just GREAT! I dig the tein springs!

I have no creeking what so ever. Very quiet, and just a nice ride. I dropped lower than I had thought, but she rides smooth!
