I'll keep this in mind when I'm ready to do the upgrade. I'm definitely making this a home project with some help of course. I have most of the tools including an air compressor for additional muscle.

I'm still confused about the spring plates but Ill worry about that when I do the upgrade.

Jon,

Good tool for calculating spring plate angle for a desired height.

Calculate the spring plate angle for desired ride height depending on:

- Torsion bar size
- Front/Rear weight distribution
- Total weight of car
