ok,
i finally got around to put the (new to me, thank you Jeff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) ) bilsteins in the back.
also got some heavier springs (180) to counteract the understeer i was getting. (911 front end and 23mm sway bar set to full soft and the front was pushing like a pig).

since the front is not yet lowered (stock 911), what is a good setting for the rear?
i have 6 positions for the perch, right now i'm on 2nd from below and the car is too low. (like, i bareley can get my arm under it) ...

how high should i go? drop the front a bit? even? front lower than back?

ahhhhh, so many choices.
Andy

btw. my old shocks were so toast, brad decided to take a video.
one had absolutely NO oil in it anymore.
