[QUOTE="SCGallo2, post: 15039150, member: 160791"] Do you know what Eibach springs or system you have installed? The Pro-system or Pro-system-plus components should be OK for the performance you are looking for. If you are intent on replacing everything, I would contact Van or Kelly @ BMR to discuss your particular application and options to achieve your goals. They have a lot more experience with suspension components and the proper pairing of dampers. I think you will be hard pressed to find a "boxed kit" that suits your taste and expectations. My recommendation is to keep what you have for now and install LCA relocation brackets. Then check your pinion angle to see if it is between -2 to -3 degrees. If not, install an adjustable UCA (and mount while you are up there) to correct as needed. Then see where you are in terms of grip. *edit* I am not implying that adjusting the pinion angle will greatly affect traction. Anytime you change your rear suspension geometry, you should check your pinion angle to verify proper driveshaft alignment to ensure maximum efficiency of power delivery to the rear tires and prevent undesired effects of a mis-aligned driveline such as vibration or premature wear and failure of components.
