Thanks!!!

I thought about the Eibach springs on the Lincoln, but I don't think it needs to be any lower. It already rides on the stiff side. If anything, I need to take a bit more body roll out of it.

I have an off ramp that I take every day on the way home from work.

It is marked as 25MPH
My nissan would barely hit 40MPF before the tires would start howling
The Lincoln would take it at 44MPH on the stock 17" Continentals
With the KDW's, I have hit 51MPH and still no howling from the tires. The body starts rolling a bit more than I care for when I hit that speed though and I lose comfort before I lose traction. In other words, I chicken out.

Some here might know the off ramp in question. It is on I-5 southbound in tacoma. The S 38th st eastbound ramp. It is a full cloverleaf style that wraps all the way around and goes back over the freeway towards pacific ave. Every day when it is nice and no one is in front of me, I try for a new personal best speed. Lack of lateral suppport on leather seats seems to stop me from going any faster.

The drop on it looks good in the pics. Any more and you would probally run into some clearance issues.

 

[tylers65]

That is actually the factory ride height.

Oh hell ya, that's what I am talking about. I love old hot rods and as soon as our house is finished I am going to start a project such as this.

 

[wazazzle]

i think the LS is based off the same platform as the jaguar x or s type. pimp LS though..

 

[tylers65]

It is the S-Type and thanks.

You certainly have a nice collection of cars. The silver anny for 25 yrs is a nice project. I have a little experience with those suckers. Just dont ever forget to lock the tops and VERIFY they are locked before taking off
