Pedderizied Today

as the tittle says just installed my Pedders springs today.
didn't get to drive it much after, just enough to hit a couple of speed bumps to get the rears to seat (as per Pedders)
figure they will settle a little more, but overall I love the way she sits.

After: (sorry for cell phone pic)

I love that color, especially with the back panel.

Don't think there going to settle, I put an extra 200 pounds in mine for the last week and nothings changed, which is a good sign of a quality spring. Lookin good

Don't be riding that SS in the snow, unless you are plowing the driveway with it!

yea, if I still lived in North Jersey I never would have lowered it.

between the crappy roads and snow it would have had a much shorter life expectancy.

I wouldn't have done the DP either...

i been having pedders for about a year now. i love the front drop,but the back NEVER came down. well not like i expected. i ended up putting spring locks on the rears to get me atleast another 1/2 inch. i thought it was because i went with a 225/40 tire on my aftermarket rims that the rear looked like doo doo,but according to some,i see that i wasn't the only one. thunking about going to coils so i can get that back leveled better.

edit: crap,yours look good peev!! hmmm,guess i'm going back to my stock rim and tire size!!!

I was thinging about doing Pedders fronts and B&G rears to get the back more level, but change of plans. B&G won't sell just the rear springs. Now to get what I want, I'm either going to have to go with Pedders all around or B&G all around, and I heard B&G fronts go a little too low, for the front half shafts .They bind up. Gonna have to dwell of this for awhile. "Moon"
