Then I'd be tempted to run with shorter springs.

Looking at that side shot above made me think about how much air ends up under the car.

I have the Blue Mopars installed, dropped about 1/2-5/8ths, not the 3/4 advertised.

I have the same on my 19, no issues.
Had eibachs on my 16. Just a little too low, ended up with a rear wheel rub on rough roads
As a side, have brand new eibachs I got when I first got my 19.
With the "blue"Mopars on, I am hesitant to use the eibachs.

My stock battery has finally died at the 7 year mark. Ordered a Kepworth lithium battery (size 082-20) from Amazon https://a.co/d/5e8BXoX. Although Amazon stated 4 to 5 weeks for delivery, the battery arrived in 4 days.

When the delivery arrived, the box contained an Ingeosolly lithium battery instead. I sent a message to Kepworth and they replied within the hour. They confirmed it’s the same battery, but with a different branding. They also refunded $120 plus tax, because the price dropped 4 days after I placed the order. The battery is now listed at $359.

The new lithium battery is the exact size as the OEM battery, but weighs 20.4 pounds versus 44.4 pounds for the OEM. After the install, the car started quickly…definitely faster the stock. The voltage is between 13.8 to 13.9 at the start and then settles at 13.9 after ten minutes. The OEM usually settled at 14.1.

Long term performance is pending, but it has started well…pun intended. IMG_2042.jpeg IMG_2041.jpeg IMG_2040.jpeg

This is at-speed, you can tell by the corners of the hood pulling up. Bull pointed that out to me last year!
View attachment 142924
issue with that hood it doesn't have the vents for air to escape like the other Hellcat hood. I had a friend with 2015 392 Challenger and he complained about the hood lifting so he put on a Hellcat hood on it with the vents

I just don’t trust lithium ion batteries for my car yet, if it burns down I’d be devastated. Glad to know 13.8 and 13.9 is normal, that’s what my challenger is usually at, spikes to the 14s under boost then settles back down. Strange because Durango is always at 14.2 on the nose and doesn’t fluctuate at all

I can understand the hesitation with lithium…I half expected this after the install.

Mine's still there. I know because I went into that garage today.

Really need to drive the poor thing, it's been a while, and before it snows again. Of course, the other day when changing oil in the 1500 I noticed that I haven't put gas in that one in over year.

Now that I can blame on that we really had no snow last winter, and the 1500 was bought specifically to be a competent "snowmobile".
