Thanks!

Ride height still needs to be lowered a bit more, the springs are 350 in the front 400 in the rear. -1.5 in the rear and about -1 in the front.

I'm a pretty tough cookie, it doesn't bother me one bit. It's kind of a trade off for the clunking noise that I had with the pinks

I laughed when I bounced out of my seat on a freeway bump
