Pedders eXtreme XA coilovers review

The install was a piece of cake. I wnt ahead and replaced the crappy stock sway bar end links with Moog end links (K750428). I ordered these online since none of my local parts stores carried them in stock.
The install was a piece of cake front and rear. I encountered no problems and the Pedders bits are, as always, very high quality.
I set the firmness 9 clicks from soft on front and rear. It is still a stiff ride, now I just need to adjust the height to where I want it to be.

Shaggy. Where's the pictures? I hope you took some during and after the install. You know we LOVE pictures on this site.

Since I will be taking the wheels off this weekend to get the height adjusted I will snap some pictures at that time.. I was so engrossed in the install that I didn't even think about taking pictures!
