no kidding

how low do you want to go on a nose like that ?

i have scraped my avenger nose
a little here and there, and now I just
don’t go over entrances that aren’t perfectly
level anymore, unless I can attack them at a 30 degree angle.

the avenger nose doesn’t look low, but it is.

Do you expect to drive this on the street?  Our ’96 Avenger ES scraps
some driveway entrances.  If you drop the car 2.5" or 3", you will hit the
front end on almost everything.  The car is pretty low to begin with.  I would
say 1.5" drop is probably as low as is practical.  Just a thought…

"All go and hardly any show."

After speaking to many High-Performance Auto places as well as my
Dodge Dealer, they said that as long as I give them a complete list of
what components are being replaced, the manufacture of the new
components, and I speak to the service manager and all this
information is recorded in his database, everything will be ok.  The
only part of the warranty that will be voided is the suspension.
Everything else is fine, including any additional warranty I’ve have
purchased.

The question is, I only know of one high-performence suspension kit
created by German based H&R for the Dodge Avenger.  It drops the front
suspension by 1.3" inches and the back by 1.4" inches (I might have
the figures reversed).  I was looking for something a little lower,
like 2.5" or 3.0" inches.  Anyone know of such a suspension kit
created for a 1995 Dodge Avenger ES?

Can’t do it… anything will void the warranty on those cars (really stinks).  
We have a ’96 Avenger ES with the 5-speed and it doesn’t have a rear sway bar
like the auto-V6 ones do.  So we called Chrysler and asked if we could have
one put on.  No, it will void the warranty.  Plus, new rear A-arms were needed
along with the rear sway bar and fittings.

Maybe you can talk someone into signing something that says it does not void
the warranty, but I wouldn’t hold your breath.
