I will use the stock 01 Bilsteins for now. The front coils are Hotchkis 1 inchers.

Officer Cartman came from Spencers. If you want the police version I think you MAY still be able to get it off the comedy central website in the Southpark section.

Crawford,
It will be interesting to see how they are going to fit under the bed. Guess we'll find out soon.

I hear ya. I have conversed with JJ'ssvt who is in with JL these days and he says he has installed a couple sets no problem on Lightnings so it should go down as a standard install. The instructions look like the normal shackle instructions... so I guess we will have to see!

Will it require strimming the bump stop? If so that will bring attention to the stock shock lengths..

My bump stops are already shortened about an inch from when I had the hotchkis rear leafs in. I didnt have any problems with the Bilsteins then or now with the 2 inch shackles. Its going to be a touch an go deal. I am hoping everything comes out okay. I will be sure to take pics of the install, before, after, etc for everyone.
