I am an A hole about the SLH write up because it'll kill you done wrong. The 54mm front brakes and 10" rear solid disks are a lot more front strong than Dempseys setup. Yet a friend could have died buy running 10" solids without mini van fronts. L bodys are just too nose heavy, sorry I was so loud, just making sure people heard me in the back

I would be very happy with gas adjust on all 4 corners. But talking KYB into it may be tough

Okay you wisened technicians of turbodom. How does all this aply to P bodies?

What is the ultimate handling set up for these cars?

Only a little. The L body is a completely different animal than the other models. You won't be able to get Konis, not new anyhow. Also, don't use Eibach springs with the KYBs unless you want a horrible ride.

As for the OP, someone is working on adapting Neon coil overs to our cars. You might want to hold out and see how that goes.

You can go to FWD Performance and get those old LRE,lowered autoX springs, I believe the spring rate are 180 lbs/in front and 145lbs/in rear, that's really not that high of a spring rate and the KYB's should work fine. I thought that the front autox spring was 240 lb/in, but all I found in the 2.2 speed secrets was 180 & 145 lb/in!
