    thanks..i know how you feel i just know the routes on where to avoid the bumps or remeber where everything is. When i park, i park really far to avoid the bumps and it helps not getting door dings from other cars.

    new set up for now...

    Front-flipped ball joints (lower only), and 15 full cranks down on torsion bars
    Rear- 4 inch angled blocks
    Wheels-16x7 +18?, 16x8 -10 starions
    Tires-205 50 16 hankook
    Additional comments about the set-up- Bump stops in rear cut down half way and re-shaped to a point. Handles a 1,000 times better but bottoms out on bump stops on really hard bumps. Plan to add spacers on front wheels at some point to bring wheels out a bit further.
