    Any chance of impressions of the FSDs?
    Compare/contrast?

    Thanks!

    FSDs are definitely more forgiving than the bilsteins, but not soft by any means. I'm glad I made the switch, I recommend the FSDs to anyone looking to upgrade. Will post a pic this week!

    Ever since I made the switch however, I have been getting non stop squeaking from the rear end. The noises only happen when going over large bumps and its a metallic squak noise. When I did the original replace I did not replace the spring pads which I thought was the culprit. Replaced those with new and added grease and the noise is still very much there, no improvement. My next thought is sway bar bushings are dry and need lubrication (although they are Turner Motorsport and shouldn't need lube) other than that I'm thinking upper ball joints? Any ideas on this or what this could be from?

    spring pads or the springs themselves could be the culprit. One of mine was actually broken.

    dlucas- How do you like the FSD shocks and struts. Would you use them again?
