lol

lol No dont close it haha

@JustRob...Thank you this is exactly the input I need

I am not wanting to dump it...I will look at the other suspension you mentioned...thank you.

A couple of questions:(keep in mind Idk much about suspension)

So all in all...you're saying dont waste money on a Beaks bar if I get the subframe brace because that alone will reinforce the rear? (just want to make sure I understand...)

Also, does anyone have a good shop I can go to once I lower the car to get it aligned? Ive had a hard time finding a shop that will get the alignment right the first time, with my old cars I had to take them back almost everytime and those cars were not even lowered.

Once again thank you for taking the time to give your .02, it is greatly appreciated.

You're correct. The ASR brace will give you all the reinforcement that you need.

I can't give any suggestions on an alignment shop based on personal experience since I do my own alignments, but Geoff at Autotire off Droste Road in St. Charles does N2HIFI and ymisoqt's cars and he does a great job from what I've seen. I've also heard Alignment Specialists in St. Charles does great work too.

I agree with the alignment shops Rob mentioned. I also use Dobbs in Ballwin where SleepyCivicDx works for all my alignments on the RL...
