Either way, the authors mentioned improvement, but they weren't jumping up and down about it.

If the other half of the change should be the shocks, whether Koni's or Bilsteins - whatever, I'd sure like to hear about it. I've read the same things on the forum about the "sports car ride", etc. So if it can be made a little easier on the bod it would be a welcome change.

Question: Who has changed BOTH their springs and shocks? What did you change from and to, and please tell us about the quality of the ride after doing so?

You can still tell you're riding in a high performance car but the snapping motion is gone completely. It no longer feels like your smashing your way thru the tracks. In fact, (I am probably dreaming about this one) but it seems to me the car is more comfortable in all phases of driving.

I went back and swapped them both out with a set small black bumpers I had. This made ride way too soft with too much body roll when driving aggressive.

I then trimmed about a 1/3 off of the stock bumpers and re-installed. The ride now is perfect, not jarring, but not to soft. Plenty of give on RR tracks, dips and those California cement freeways.

I think it rides better now then when it was new.

It's a cheap alternative ($0.00) you can try before spending any money. Not sure if the limited has this bumper in the shock.

Stop by Dan and I'll take you for a spin.

Here is a pic - it's hard to see the black bumper on the rod but it's there.
