I have purchased most of my suspension parts from Jason at Paragon and he has always responded positively to any problems or issues and in fairness to the other vendors such as Lindsey and Speed Force they have taken care of any issues I had as well. I went with the Koni yellows and front coilover kit and in retrospect, I wish I spent a few more dollars and went with the Bilstein Escort set-up.

I just got home and wanted to update this post. I see that Jason and Skip have already beaten me to it. Anyway, the situation has been taken care of. Jason is going to ship out the correct color right front strut with matching dust boot. I almost feel bad about making such a stink about it.

Also, I received both the camber/caster plates and correct spring perches today. Everything looks great.

I would personally like to thank Jason, Chuck, and Skip at Paragon Products for being such stand-up guys. They have definately earned more business from me. That could be a lot more considering I just bought an '87 944 S!

Also, I would like to thank those who contributed to this topic. Once again this forum has proven its worth.

Once you get these things in you will be astounded at how well the car handles. They are stiff but not HARSH. I was expecting them to be too much for the street but I drive em to work almost every day and then for DEs I swap out tires and crank over the camber plates and off I go. I will "prolly" put this set up on every 944 I ever own.

- what valving and spring rates you running?
- are you using torsion bars also, or just rear coil over
