But,not that anyone cares,there is more to the story that nobody on here realizes. I am probably the only member on this board that owns a 5th generation Camaro but has never driven it.(Wife has a 2011 Dodge Caravan so it is always in the back of my mind that this thing is a waste of money but it is my passion,my dream,and what keeps me going). I am legally blind with about 20% vision remaining so my wife is my driver. Thing is,she works 60,70 hours a week and getting the car back and Fourth for mods is a huge hassle with her being the only driver in the family and her work schedule. Right now the car is two years old with only 2000 miles on it and most of those were put on getting it back and fourth to IL. for the HP mods twice. I was hoping to not have to go through that huge hassle again just for suspension mods but if I have to put them off for five or six months until then thats what I will have to do I guess. Sorry for the long ramble,this was my "coming out of the closet" post. lol

I just bought the Pedders XA's and I'm doing the install myself on jackstands in my garage. It's taking me a long time because I work out of town M-F and the weekends have been too busy or too cold so I get a little frustrated! I keep having to remind myself that I am so blessed to still have the capabilities to do my own work, so I won't complain! Stories like yours are what keep guys like me grounded and thankful for even the little things! Once you do get the suspension stuff done make sure your wife gives you a real wild ride so you get to experience the handling and those wicked G-forces!! |

Thank you for the suggestion but I have checked into that a couple of times and the cost is very prohibitive unfortunately.
