Could you e-mail it to me as well? I'd appreciate it. I have numerous subscriptions to various mags but I don't have one to them. My address is "formula_gta@yahoo.com". Thanks

I was going to go with the hotchkins, but for the same price you can get the kenny brown kit which is made better and performs a lot nicer; as well as their panhard rod is adjustable in "2" places not just one like hotchkins......... as far as sway bars, 1-LE's work perfect!

but that's just my .02 cents.

I have hotchkis rear suspension and I love it, nice and tight in the back. The panhard only adjust in one plac, but why would you need 2 places? It's just the same. Two is just another bolt to keep tight.
