ala Craigers: 5 Questions!



I think you can lower the stock seats a tiny bit by cutting the frame, bending it and rewelding. Rick Alexander did that with seats I got from a Cabbie. Vented rotors are good, but I think most roccs already have them. Cross drilled wears your pads down and creates more dust, from what I hear. Stainless steel lines make a decent difference, as does new brake fluid. For the sways, I know there is a set of Neuspeed 22/28mm bars for sale on Vortex atm. On Ebay, there's always new linkages for sale and new shift bushings. I'd reccommend the missing linkz bushings and Scott's linkage setup. Missing Linkz's shifter setup has had rave reviews, but so has Scott's and he's a lister and a cool guy, so h e gets my nod.

First, I need a new driver seat. What's the dificulty level in lowering a stock seat? Would I be better off buying an aftermarket for more headroom? What aftermarket seats are reccomended?

Second, I need to do the breaks. I'd like to get new rotors and pads. I've always thought about cross-drilled slotted rotors. Is this a wise choice? What is reccomended? What will this run ($)?

Third, I need to do something about suspension. I'd like to lower it a bit. Pros & cons of adjustable shocks? What's will this run?

Fourth, and I guess part of third, I'd like to do the sway bars, etc. These, if I remember from searching years ago, aren't that pricey.

Fifth, and I think last at this point in time (all this should give me plenty to do), I'd like to do something about shifting. I don't mind the throw (I'm 6'3"), but there's alot of play. Sure (?) shifters would fix this, correct? What's reccomended?
