Pretty car.
Thank you, the car is not lowered or bottoming out. It’s like I can feel every bump in the road, like a stiff ride I would say. When I push down on the front end it doesn’t bounce a lot up and down. I notice on bad parts of the road, which in NY is everywhere lol. Good to know front end is not complicated. I’ve done struts before but these looked different, like you described. Thanks again
