All of my Pedders suspension arrived a few weeks back. It finally was installed last weekend. I went with their Xa Street Plus setup: coilovers, bushings, and swaybars. The results are nothing short of amazing. The stance is perfect and the handling is ridiculous. Here are few quicks shots that I snapped yesterday afternoon:

Thanks for posting the original thread, but damn! The way the car sat before was like wearing a tie-dyed shirt to your high school reunion. Embarrassing.

Thanks, Shawn! Again, I appreciate the connection with Jim on selling that Windsor block. That worked out perfectly.

Thanks, Dustin. How's the Mach doing? I haven't seen any bandwidth-killing photo shoots lately.

Yep. That's exactly where that is. I live on Ridgeview.

Its doing ok, just installed a 4.10 rear this saturday, & it rips pretty hard now, but I wouldn't mind trading it in on a GXP... [Big Grin]

I know its been awhile but I'll try to get to one of the next CA Fords events. If you're there, I'll let you take it for a spin. [burnout]

Looks good man. I've seen you driving around the Folsom area a few times and your car looks clean. [patriot]

I don't have it set on kill. I would say that its a little bit stiffer than stock. You do notice the bumps a bit more, especially expansion joints, but its definitely not a punishing ride.

Yep. It is a 6 speed manual. Its the only way I would buy one and one of the main reasons that I held out for the GXP.

Good news for now then... as long as they don't eventually send you to Alaska or something.

I appreciate it! Here's the thread from when I added the wheels and tires. I swear the car hadn't settled yet because it wasn't as bad as the pics look.
