Which lowering kit is the best?

Before anyone flames me I already did a search. All I know is that my '03 sits way to high in the back. It looks like my '72 Dodge Demon the day I bought it.

I would like to even it out without slamming it. The adjustable shackles look good but would I still like to lower the front a little. I don't plan on changing wheel size yet. Also which vendor to shold I buy from?

Thanks

If you're looking for just a cheap slam, get some drop shackles and front drop coils...

You can drop as much as 2 in the front and 4 in the back....

Thanks for the reply. I want a nice setup, not a cheap slam. Any ideas of who I should talk to. BTW I am willing to spend enough to do it right. Thanks

I would say the Roush would be my choice if I had a couple grand to spend

Full Roush Racing suspension is 675, but... You need to ask for Eric.

Thanks guys. I've read though that the Rousch can be very rough. This is a daily driver and I'm not quite an old fart yet so I don't want something overly harsh.

What about spindles? Worth the expense?

Tim Skelton's page is great. A little concerned about the bump steer. I'll read it again tonight when I don't have a kid sitting on me. Thanks again.
