I wanted sealed bearings and better brakes, and to stand out with something unique. Lowering springs need increased spring rate to prevent bottoming out, because any lower and you ride on the bump stops, thats why they get cut off. Van LCAs let you keep the spring rate of the stock springs, but its still a truck front spindle and brake caliper. With sealed bearings that use Corvette brake calipers and rotors, you have much more braking capacity for stress applications, like auto cross. Ive seen the Crown Vic front end swap on these trucks, and people love it. I want something thats more of a bolt in deal anyone can do in a weekend. "As-is" was never good enough! Never aspire to be basic!
