You might want to rethink your shock selection. I emailed Edelbrock a while back before I dropped my Dak to make sure that the IAS Performer's would work on a 3" drop. The response back stated that there wasn't enough travel in the IAS's for that much drop (2" max). Unless they now have a lowered shock, you would run into problems if you went with the IAS's.

For about another $10 - $20 per shock, see if Hotchkis makes Bilsteins for your D.
