    Hopefully this will help someone. Placed GOD'sSpeed coilovers in my VOLVO s60 t6. After placing it on my car shocks felt like they had given out. Took it to volvo they said it was the control arms, endlinks. Replaced those parts.It Didn't solve the problem. What did help was simply adjusting the compression and rebound valve to stiff vs. soft. 3:08

    Love your car man. I'm thinking about getting the mono rs for my Forester. I don't want to lose ride height, and wouldn't mind a little stiffer suspension. I have a 14' aluminum trailer I pull sometimes. Do you think I would lose ride height or does it just depend on how I set them up as far as spring adjustment?

    Would you recommend these for a dodge Caliber SXT? I need new struts and this is about the same as the TRQ front and rear. Also if I don't care about "stance" and just want a factory ride height or an inch lower should I go with these or the hyper street 1 or MaxPeedingRodz? Why is top plate adjustable on the front for godspeed but not for other cheap coilovers?
