Been bolted to a car, never driven on. I'm going with a torque arm set up. Will include del-a-lum bushings. $300. Located in New Jersey, I'll split shipping. They are painted so you are going to have to trust me :) I have pics before with the DSE stickers on them, they just got ugly sitting around.

Brand new billet adjustable QA1 shocks, shorter than stock application to work with the springs. $150

Ok, taking pictures of springs and shocks while still on a car is pretty much stupid. They will come out this weekend if I'm not as sick as I am right now. Here is a pic. Don't mind the block, I was just trying to see where I needed to be for ride height.

Mage,
After looking at the picture I posted I am remembering I relocated my shock mounts so I did not use the factory location. This allowed me to run a shorter shock that would be in its optimal range on a low car. I kind of made the shock mount around the shock where the rear sat at ride height. Having said that, I'm unsure if these would work in a factory location. So, I like to pull them out, get the part number off the shock body and go from there. The last thing I want is to sell anybody a shock and have it not work as advertised. The first go-round with the car I planned on using the factory shock mounts. I forgot I made the mounts the second go round. Full disclosure. So, if you want the springs we can do that and I will check on the shocks. Check DSE's site to see if you can run the stock shock with these springs. I believe you can. If you wanted to buy shocks(and mine won't work), they are about $135 a pop just for information. However, you may be ok with whatever is under the car now. Mine is slammed thus the need for new shocks.

I had a feeling I was going to need a torque arm set up. I just tried to pretend it all away. Lesson for those in the building stage. Plan, plan, research and plan, and go with your gut. Now I have to cut into a finished car. Idiot. Back to our regularly scheduled program.

As of right now everything is tentatively sold with the exception of the offset shackles which the buyer did not need. They are listed in another thread. If this falls through I will let you all know. Thanks.

Looking for education here - is the "need for a torque arm setup" related to the ride height you seek or what? I have leafs too, car unassembled as yet,....so I'm pretty clueless.

Yes, on my particular car. Its been a long irritating story, but in order to achieve the desired ride height on my car I would have had to use the 3" drop leafs and 3" blocks. On every other car I've seen the leafs alone were just fine. I have the same issue in the front. Maybe my floor was welded in wrong at the factory, its stock. I have no idea. I don't want to give you the wrong impression, you will probably be fine with your leafs. I'm just cursed. PM if you have any questions.
