As for the price, I know the kit lists at over $2000, but there is a automatic 10% discount on the item.  At least there was.....

FYI - Year One now lists the Baer brakes as "Discount Exempt".
Looks like a sweet install. What other suspension mods are you making?  I noticed tube upper control arms in the pics.

I am pretty sure it was discount exempt when I bought them and remember getting the discount during the checkout on the web.  It did surprise me at the time and wondered if the discount was because it was some promotion where if you had an order over $1000 you would get a 10% discount.  Either way, I didn't argue the price. :)

My suspension I have build with new Firm Feel upper control arms and sway bars, poly bushing everywhere, boxed lower arms, heavy duty lower control arm pins, strut rods, adjusting bolts, and .96 torsion bars.  The rear is all poly bushings with A-body HD springs and the 3/4 re-location kit.  Plus the other obvious parts which are the Edelbrock IAS shocks.

Thanks for the info.  It sounds almost exactly like what I want to do.  Stock based, but improved.  I was looking at these tubular upper control arms. http://www.magnumforce.com/detail.aspx?ID=1561 Similar, but adjustable and only $19 more.

I've heard the 1.0's are too harsh for comfortable street use so I was going with the .96's. How does it ride on the .96 bars?

If you do go with the stock style front brake set up (Cordoba), there is a company that makes and sells caliper adapters so you can use viper calipers.  The brackets are made by AR Engineering (www.arengineering.com).  Check out Mopar Action June 2005 for more details.

My car is not on the road yet, so I can't comment about the .96 bars.  I can say I plan to put a big block in it though.  :rofl:
