Had a spare day.

The front track width is now identical to the rear (2012) without having to utilize aluminum spacers. It stops on a dime with the larger rotors and believe it or not, it rides TONS better than the coils....it doesn't hop and dive or jump around anymore. Oh, and the alignment stays constant now.

I went with the 5,200 lbs. V-code springs in the front instead of the X-codes that are rated for 6,000 lbs. and tend to lift it another 1.5". I might find some Excursion springs and get it just a little lower in the front as it sits level now but I don't want to rely on the airbags to level it out with a little bit of weight.
