[FLATOUT]

Look at the first post in this thread.

You are seriously not selling this as something that you can ship and I can install myself???????????????????????????????? That's seriously going to limit your customer base (myself included).

They are now

As said above, yes they are now. BTW as they mentioned above, they are at COTA racing this weekend and I know they are already there prepping for the race so Nathan is the guy to call to place your orders.

Nathan should be there today to take an order. Bernie and Ben are at COTA but I would think Nathan would be at the dealership.

Thanks man!

BTW someone had a question about whether these were stock units that were just machined down. They are not, these are completly new, machined pieces.

They will not be selling the caps separately. Only installed.[/QUOTE]

I wonder why they wouldnt sell them seperately? It's not rocket science to change caps....

They changed their minds and you may call and order caps on Tuesday. Info in this thread.

Great idea.

Just reduces the preload thus dropping the car on stock springs.

Nice quality; simple solution.

Is this why there's talk about better ride quality ?

[EdwardETraylorIII]

Thanks guys! They should probably go back and edit that post so that folks, like myself, don't see that, then skip the rest of the tread and just hit reply and bitch about them not selling outright.

Great news on the change of heart!

I was getting the mill ready to make my own! Glad they are now available!

Flatout, thanks for the contact info!

Caps ordered! Pleasure dealing with Tomball.

Does anyone know the alignment specs for after the install?

[FLATOUT]

Morning guys, congrats Simms. I know they recommend an alignment but that's only if it needs it after install. I know when Morgan installed mine at Tomball that he mentioned that everything was in spec when the install was completed.

Andy, do you have any other pics of the car? All I've seen are the ones Tony posted.

No new ones yet, I need to get a camera on it. Hopefully I'll get out tomorrow.

Does Morgan just use a coil spring compressor? Does he even take them off the car?

No idea, at the time they weren't letting people install them themselves, so I just dropped it off and picked it up.

A few photos of recent SRT lowered at Tomball Dodge/Viper Exchange:









It looks so darn good (minus the dirt).

I guess its "better" than using high rate aftermarket springs.

I dont see how the ride will be any "better" than stock given youre still using stock springs. Basically this will give the car a small drop while maintaining ride quality as close to stock as humanly possible.

Is this car new ? As mine seems to sit a bit lower than this stock, 2 fingers on top of tire front and back, 5,000mi.

[DPViper]

Did Jon B ever come out with spring caps for the Gen 5? I see his price on previous gens is $159. Thanks

wow, you buy it new? maybe Canada cars are different, no way a gen v sits that low from new, much less any other years

The suspension def settles down a bit after miles on it.
