KW suspension on Magnum

Just completed an install of a KW suspension on a SRT8 magnum.......lets just say it made a world of difference on both looks and handeling. Got the kit form Hennessey Performance. They said they will have more kits in stock soon.The kit features coil overs front and rear with .75" - 2.25" drop adj.
Just my 2 cents.......

The rears are not coil overs, its an adjustable spring perch and a adjustable shock. I think true coil over on the rear would rip through the sheet metal at the top of the shock mount.

The best part of the kit is the ability to set the ride height and the damping of the shock/strut. I have mine set pretty firm @ 2.5 turns in the front and 1.5 turns in the rear on the damping. That is out of 3 turns. Ride is very firm, you could tune it softer for when she rides with you, the backs are a PITA to get to since you have to pull the top of the shock out of the mount.
