They are really stiff polyurethane i believe. Less metal on metal noise. So im guessing inbetween oem and spl. I opted for spl cuz i need something that can move more since i raise and lower my car so much. A little noise never hurt

lol Stand back from the car!

LOL! It was all good. I even had a cop show up in my driveway about 2am seeing what I was up too... or maybe there really was a strange van reported in the area, either way... it's all done. Well, I do still have a box full of whitelines!

I have a friend who had a fully built firebird and he swore by the energy suspensions. Just found it funny to see it mentioned with a firebird... and I wanted a firebird. Yeah, mmm firebird.

Nice Chris! Real nice!

@Stephen - I always wanted a firehawk too! I even went to the dealer once to put an order down... but needless to saw that was before I could afford it and it never happened.
