Well I talk to a custom shop here and I told them per a forum member it may be around 450 he said that's not bad and if never rust and light weight he said is worth it. Just making sure it fits like a glove that would be the question. I think is alot cheaper than a 4link

I have heard good things from people who bought the flex a form springs. It's a great idea. Better locates the axle laterally too. I'd suggest greasable bolts cause those poly bushings *squeeeeeeak.*

Im gonna get a set but it will be a while down the road. I have tons of other stuff to spend that money on right now. As for fitment, he wants to have your old springs to "copy". He also said he can raise or lower the rear of the car per customers request.
