    Arrow Motown hard at work

    Just wanted to post up and say thanks to Roger for helping me get the new Napa forged upper control arms, lower ball joints, tie rod ends, and Ridetech shocks with 750 rate spring installed yesterday. I'm down in my back and couldn't offer much assistance but he continued like a champion knocking this job out in my garage. We took it around the block afterward and WOW, what a difference! Thanks again buddy!

    Good work men. My fronts will need replacing how is a 750 spring rate on the city streets, not too firm? Any idea what the factory spring rate was. I'm looking to get this done soon. I've lost a shock with just over 50 thousand miles.

    Marauders are 330 lb progressive springs, coilovers are constant rate. Chris went 750 due to weight of iron block, whipple, etc. I'm going with their standard 650 lb. Motown just put them on the coyote marauder

    Members helping members

    Are those Napa parts special order or are they just the regular replacement parts?

    Can you list the part#'s when you get a minute?
