Also, what did Cobb charge you for a 4 wheel alignment?
well I was there getting my fender's rolled ($25 bucks a fender) before the Drivers Edge track event, and turns out they are track junkies and we got to talking.. (in fact they came out to MSR this weekend and loaned my an OBDII reader when I was in a pinch!). I told them that I would spread the word on the corner balancing on the DFW G35 forums, and to possibly expect calls and give em the same deal.

Cobb charges $100 for 4 wheel alignment.

do you have them on your hotchkis?

Ask your little birdy how adjustable endlinks for sways would alter the ride height at any of the wheels?

I have the 2nd gen OEM endlinks ( swapped out to them when I put my hotckis sways on under warrenty, 1st Gens are known to crack with stiffer endlinks) and these are non adjustable.

Well I have adjustable endlinks and can see how they would help a bit, gets the preload off the sways, just makes for better tuning.

Thanks for the info on these guys. Now I won't have to drive to Austin for suspension tuning as much if at all anymore.

Even going in a straight line, it rides a lil stiffer than before.
