    In my readings, I saw that Lakewood doesn't recommend using coilovers on their shocks/struts anymore. I'm not a drag person so this info needs to be double checked. I have heard good things about Strange shocks/struts though, and I do believe they support coilover applications. However, I could be wrong... :).

    Strange has a pretty good setup with coilovers and shocks and not too expensive. I've read pretty good things about them unlike the UPR where it seems to be a love or hate thing.

    I have Strange on the front of mine and I can vouch for them. They have gone the whole nine yards in my stance build.

    Well I want to set up for drag racing. But when I'm not racing slam it. Anything is better than the cut stock springs I have. I can always spend a few minutes to raise them up and when I figure out where they work best I can mark them so I always know where to set them at the strip
