APR Coilovers

If there is enough interest in these coilovers the group buy will go through the proper channels. With that said if we are going to get coilovers for our trucks APR will get it done. What are you guys looking for with these coilovers? Single adjustable? Double adjustable? (rebound and dampening) Also being able to give your XR a stock to 2" drop? Been on the phone all morning with Allan Phillips and a quality suspension company. So far so good. Please remember that with more adjustments their will be more expense. These will not be for weak wallets. You want quality, you will get it but quality is not cheap. I have spoken to other members today and have come up with 4 people so far. Guys, like I said before if Allan Phillips can win in Indy car he can win in our XR community.

so if your going to drop 2 inches how you gonna fix the alignment we only have enough wiggle room for 1.75 thats why all the drops besides the DJM have been 1.75...if you want to go LOW go DJM if you want to look better than stock go with something that will give you looks and still be able to fix the alignment...just my 2 cents

Ur completely right about that one. It would have to go from stock to 1.75" for it to have correct camber. That slipped my mind
