    Oh sorry, that was the rare, non-sarcastic "Google search" reply? Okay then. [closes missile silos, pulls back to DefCon 3] And Snickers sucks. Always gets peanuts all up in your teeth. I mainline Dunkin Donuts original blend.

    Thanks 1LoudLS, oddball, and hite337. Cool rendering hite! So, I’ve written technical articles for car mags and OEMs for the last 13 years, like this one. I was planning on including the LS suspension in an upcoming article, but I’m not a suspension expert and it sounds like this suspension...
