Johnny, are new shocks front / rear abailable from Bilstein?
You can just have your rears rebuilt for $80 each.
Fronts are new at about $100 each
I have part numbers on my GTP site.

There were a few….which is yours? Send me the cover and I can tell you if I have it.
I will be adding a "GTP's in Print" section when I get time with my pdf's of ads, brochures, pamphlets, etc.

I'll find out soon. I do not think one of mine is fixable. The top of the shaft is bent a little.Johnny, are new shocks front / rear abailable from Bilstein?
Sending them out today.

Part of the rebuild is to inspect the piston shaft for excessive wear or other damage. If there is, they are supposed to replace it. That may come as an extra fee, though.
They were sent off.
Also ordered Raybestos "professional grade" ball joints.
These used to be Spicer and sold to Raybestos.
Looking at SEMA these seem to be the best I found.
Should have the rear suspension all freshened up by time the shocks get back here.

Ball joint press from local NAPA store, free loan. IT worked perfect.

^^ You said Quaife and Barbie, haha.
That upgrade should be nice
Really have not had an issue on the street. But then not a lot of power yet.That upgrade should be nice
But after a few changes, it might need it. Also will help for the autocross.

I wonder if it might upset the car? I know I remember reading that the Lotus Elise/Exige with the track pack that came with the LSD actually handled worse with it, but people wanted it, so they put it in.
Most GTP's did come with a LSD…."I heard", but no one says that their car has one yet.

But not all did, and for sure not mine.

You know what...I remember that now...DOH! I still think it would be interesting to compare.
More parts showed up yesterday. All 6 ball joints for the rear of the car.

Johnny, you really should bring this up to the PNW FWD mopar spring meet. I know its not FWD, but Im not gonna complain lol. You could also maybe bring some of your products and set up a little vendor table. Most SRT guys I talk to dont even know about your products. Id have to talk to the wife, but you might be able to crash at my place so your not doing all the driving in one shot. Id even throw up on the FB page that the event is being sponsored by Polybushings lol.
Question.
It was advertised at 200hp. Stock TII had 175hp on paper (back then, today that would transform into what, 140?)
What would make them say that.
Was the LM modified or anything else?
