    Aside from H&R sports springs what other manufacture make decent sport springs? I would like firm spring rates but wouldn't want the drop to be greater than 1.25" all the way around if possible.

      Y not get the GC coil kit. Pick your own spring sizes/rates/adjust ability for around 300$

            This? Would it work with my HD blistein shocks and OEM springs? Looking for less body roll and firmer ride in the end.

              A few things:

              Mercury (and most real ins companies) doesn't use KBB and it has no bearing on the payoff

              If part of an insurance claim, you can definitely get a rental at any driving age, so whoever told you that is wrong. You can't get a loss-of-use rental if no money is being paid out on the claim

              There is no more money insurance can pay. It's a contract and their insured did not buy enough coverage. They offer to split the money as an effort to protect their insured with the money available, or they pay no one and leave him open to suit. Better make sure that other car was paid/fixed through insurance and not out-of-pocket

              Unless you have comprehensive, your car getting stolen would have left you SOL. Or if you had collision your own insurance would have totalled you out and paid the value of the car less deductible.

                  so basically, my only option is to take him to small claims then? i guess that's what i'll be doing. i can get a rental just fine, but it would come out of my pocket and i wasn't about to spend 8-1000 for 5 days. i'm definitely positive that the guys car was fixed through his insurance as that's what mercury and my insurance said. he went through his and mercury was waiting on receipts from the other parties to see what money they have left over for me.

                        Man I lived enough of that life before 21. Now im not even interested. Friends still doing it & I rather be at home watching Jeopardy. Being out 4-5 days of the week only coming home to get clothes and shower ain't as fun as it used to be.

                          It is in the Ford building parking lot by Taco Bell headquarters. Just follow the classic, exotic, etc cars and park where they park. ;) I'm going to try and get there around 6am. Shoot me a pm if you decide to go.
