    when it comes to aftermarket suspension, i have no clue whats going on....could someone explain to me why adjustable control arms, adjustable upper control arms, and adjustable panhard rods are better than regular non adjustable ones, and how do you adjust them and how do you know what setting to adjust them to or how does this system work when it comes to adjusting all these things? I would greatly appreciate it if someone would explain this to me, thank you.

    Aftermarket lower control arms will help eliminate wheel hop. The adjustable upper will allow you to change your pinion angle for example if you have lowered the car. The upper also contributes in eliminating wheel hop. Metco offers a lower control arm mount relocation kit which will change the horizontal angle of the control arms for better launches and will also offer room to run 15's in the rear for optimum traction. (more sidewall on 15's). The adjustable panhard rod will aid in cornering and allow you to center the rear in relation to the rest of the car. All of these parts are available with higher density bushings to aid in suspension rigidity.

    Adjust here but to where?

    Is there a good tech write up on how to adjust different suspension parts and a comparison between them and the non adjustables. While I am pestering everyone, does anyone know of a good lowering kit that will lower the front and back only .75-1in evenly. Every spring that is progressive for a better ride is always lower in the back then the front. I like the look and stance of my 05, I say leave the tail up!:SNSign:
