Hey,
Well since i was replacing my rear lower control arm bushings i said what the hell. Lets go to the junk yard and see if we can find some mark viii rear lower control arms since they are made out of aluminum and would save some weight. Anywho. I noticed that i would have to have spring perches made to have the original height. Also i noticed that these spring perches are usefull because they prevent the spring from possibly moving which looks doubtful at the moment. Unless you go off roading and the damn rear suspension has to move about a foot vertically... Anywho. I was thinking of taking home the rear airbags. But i said for what. I dont like airbags. I rather keep my springs. Anywho. Would it be worth switching over to the aluminum rear control arms and have some spring perches made or just keep my steel arms and just replace the bushings...
I also noticed that they have mark-viii air bag system delete kits. pretty wide springs for the rear and coil overs for the front i believe...
should i replace the arms and invest in one of these delete kits...
