Hotchkis rides like poop?
Anyone else think that the Hotchkis setup rides too rough?
Sure it handles great but after a long drive I feel like Im going to **** blood from my bruised kidneys.

I had the Exact same setup on my 99 but it was an extended cab. I will just say the kit was on for 6 months. it sucked Could not wait to get it off. Went DJM. I was most concerned with ride quality than handling.

Im still loving mine
1 mile or 500 miles
a little stiff but you gotta give up one for the other
I dont see how any other kit could give you a cadillac
ride and sports car handling at the same time...
and fit this well
but then again Im runnin stock 16 inch tires and stock shocks so that absorbs some Im sure
