The ride is awesome compared to stock. I love it. But now I think I've got sway bar clunking at slow speed bumps. Gotta take care of that.

Looks real good now. Good choice. Which model H&R's? Also, are you going to upgrade your shocks, struts, and sways?

H&R 51858's... This is actually temporary until I can afford to get Tein coilovers, then I'll do the sways too..

is 51858 and 51858-55 the same spring? i was on c-c-c.net yesterday because Im looking to order my springs soon and wanted the Sport springs (thought that was the number of them), but on their site it shows the OE springs for that number and the Sport springs as 50103. is this correct???

OE 51858-55 - Drops F/R: 1"/1.25"
Sport 50103 - Drops F/R: 1.75"/1.5"

...looks good ....that clunking sound may be your shocks going because I have the same sound and that is what someone told me (I have the comptech springs)

ps. if you find that was not the issue could you post what that problem was so that I can get it fixed as well thanks

I don't think the shocks are going yet honestly. I think the sway bar end links aren't as tight as they should be. We didn't follow the directions exactly right and loosened the right rear up a bit. I don't think we got it tight enough once we figured out what we were doing...

As far as the spring part number... Not sure, all I know is 51858. I will tell you it's sitting about 1 1/2" (or more) lower than it did on the stock springs.
