Good luck brother. PM me if you feel the need. I've got a day planned tomorrow with some bros to go to a pick and pull place. I'm guessing we are going to have a good time.

Wondering what you think of the BTS kit...

I just installed mine last weekend although I did not add CC plates. I wanted to wait to see how the alignment goes.

It handles nicely and it still cruises quietly on the highway. Bumps seems to be a bit harsh though. I believe my quads are shot so those are next.

I like the kit overall, not much of a drop but I didnt really want a whole lot (live in new england). I went with poly isolators all around and I have new quadshocks too. Big difference taking sharp turns, car just feels a lot tighter in all around driving. Bumps dont seem too bad for me, maybe the poly isolators helped. I only have one problem now and its my rear sits slightly lower than the front, I think its just cause I got about 100lbs worth of stuff in the trunk though.

I understand that. Getting in and out of my driveway is a bit harder now. Bumps don't make more noise, but since the car is stiffer, you feel them more...

I only got about 3/4" drop on the rear, however, the front lowered 1 1/4".
I just did the swap over Labor day weekend so it will be interesting to see if it settles anymore.
