Get the AS kit! I got mine 1 month after I bought my truck! I love the look. My dealer even installed mine. It will not void your warranty.

Thanks man...awesome! I'd like a new Stang too, but just can't justify it to myself yet. Maybe one day...

Have you measured from the lip of your fenderwell to the ground on the front and back to see how close to level you are now? I've heard there are 2" and 2.5" kits, so I'm just wondering what effect each has on ride height.

I have not measured, but the 2.5" made mine level! Some say that the 2" made theirs level. What year is yours again?

2007...if I spent the money and it wasn't what I wanted, I know I'd be unhappy with it...that's why I asked if you measured.

Believe me, you will not regret a leveling kit. If you tow any, I'd go with a 2" Like I said, the 2.5" worked for me. Then again, I do not tow at all. I can't wait to get 33's on my truck. I will also be buying new wheels as well.

What are the details on your 'Stang? I ordered an '08 in late October and picked it up the week before Christmas -- pics in my gallery. All I can say is that the car is an absolute blast to drive!

I thought when I bought the Mustang I'd finally have my "vehicle addiction" in check. Nope -- now I'm starting to think a last generation T-Bird would look awfully nice slid into my garage next to the 'Stang and my F-150. Don't tell the wife, but I've got to start saving my pennies again.....

For those that haven't seen my truck, feel free to look at my gallery...my boat is in there too and I just paid it off a couple months ago (about 5 years early). WOOHOO!

Cool Tow, tow, tow your boat, gently to the laaaake...

So with your 2.5" leveling kit, you'll be tucking 33's? I bet that'll look nice! Looks like the 2" is the best for me since I drag my boat to the water every chance I get. I like the stock 20's on my truck...but once I've worn out my existing tires, I may go for a more "off-road" look. I took the truck into the woods on the first day I had it and realized rather quickly that my street tires were no match for the mud ruts. I did NOT get stuck though...thankfully.

I just experienced that very feeling with the boat and the best way I can describe it is "a sigh of relief" to know that I can use the money I was spending on payments, for fuel and oil to have some fun on the water!

I'm not a hiring manager, but I can tell you that the company is always looking for qualified, talented employees. You can check out http://www.resumeware.net/gdns_rw/gd...job_search.cfm for openings and if you find a position you'd like to apply for, let me know and I can refer you.

Thanks man. Good to hear you have your rides paid off. I re-checked my insurance rates just last week with the hope that I could find something cheaper, but I quickly realized I better leave well-enough alone. I don't know what's going on with these insurance rates...they're sky-high in places!
