Re: first kill with new setup

The Koni adjustables might work better on a Typhoon but they were a $350 waste of money on my truck. I've put up with the tooth-rattling ride for several years now and I'm going back to regular shocks. The traction bars also make the ride suck if you have preload on the springs. I've backed the snubbers off since I drive my truck on the street 99% of the time. The right-rear Koni is blown out...I can push it in and out with little resistance. The other three are OK. I will put them in the classifieds after I get them swapped out next weekend. Between the overly-stiff ride and slipping torque converter, I have no desire to drive my truck anymore. If the shocks fix the ride and the new 9/11 2500 stall converter I ordered solve those issues, then I might start driving it again. Otherwise, it's getting sold and I'll use the money for a down on a C6 Z06.

Daang, well let's hope that thing starts treating you better. Or at least let's hope I can get a ride in the Z06, haha. I'd kill for one. Think you might be down to head over to my place sometime Saturday to hang for a few? Branden and I will be puttin turbo/downpipe on my truck. I'll be in Vegas for SEMA for the next couple days, so I might not be able to get online til I get back.

Buy a z06 and keep the sy??

Guy at my work has one. Cant wait till I can take a ride in it. How have you been Jeremy? Shit if I knew you might sell you Sy I would have not done the work on mine and sold it to buy yours. I can never get mine to look that clean.

Re: first kill with new setup

I was just kidding...I seriously doubt I'll ever sell my Clone. I'll dump the E55 and other toys before getting rid of her. Next car is going to be an SL65 AMG or C6 Z06. No more screwing around.
