[@oscarlewisjr.8380]

Looking good, you didn't waste any time getting after it. I can't wait to see the final result. Great Job 👍🏽

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

Thanks Oscar! We should be posting the update very soon! Big things coming🤙 We got an awesome personal best, can't wait to share our results. Thank you for watching our videos man!

Nice vid , I’ve been waiting to buy this for my Redeye. Lowering the cradle is what is a headache for me, but it’s either that or grind shit to fit 15” wheels.

[@Redeyereaper8]

Noticed you're lower trailing arms are upside down....have complete kit front and rear on my 19 challenger hellcat redeye narrow body...its amazing components

[@jcasey460]

Hi Chris...That's a nice drag kit. Please do a review on the performance improvement. What was the sequence of events, did the driveshaft fail before or after the AAD kit was installed? Thanks

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

Hey John! My wife is in the process of editing some videos of the update in performance/ recommendations ect.. I will say this.. The AAD kit is some of the best looking suspension components I've ever seen. And when setup correctly they are the BEST option available for the Challengers and Chargers!

[@jcasey460]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial Yea they are something else. If you can, talk a bit about how you set them up. The vid looks like you might have a little negative camber but that could just be the camera. You really have done a great job with you car. Are 8's in your future?

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

@@jcasey460 no negative camber. We'll be posting our alignment specs and going over our complete experience thus far with the build. 8's was never the goal, but as you know.. The want for more is always there!

@@KelleysGarageOfficial I'll be watching

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

@@jcasey460 do you have a Redeye as well?

[@oemytech]

Be sure to change the bolt direction on the upper trailing arm and the toe link. Then you will not have to drop the cradle.

[@alopez2006]

Would it also work for the control arms?

[@oemytech]

@@alopez2006 Yes as there is one on the upper control arm. Be sure you have a new one to replace before you start.

[@alopez2006]

@@oemytech If I only remove/loosen one side first, does the cradle drop enough to install? Or do I need to loosen the other side as well?

[@oemytech]

@@alopez2006 Speedy at speedys garage dropped the complete cradle. Check it out on his KZbin channel.

[@pro7070]

@@oemytech You only drop one side at a time.

[@Maverikman1]

Did you have to remove or lower the driveshaft as the angle is quite severe when you lower the cradle.

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

Negative. The driveshaft can stay connected.

[@James-Orr]

Did you have to get shorter sway bar end links to clear your wheels? I ave some Welds coming in.

[@alexander_3923]

Does it improve traction by alot?

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

It helps. All depends on how you setup your alignment afterwards. Cradle lockout kit and DIRS diff brace will also help.

[@alexander_3923]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial i want to be able to launch without spinning so much 😂 hopefully those parts help

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

You need to get a good tire. Even then you'll still spin on the street. Need good track prep too

[@alexander_3923]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial i dont really go to track so i want good traction on street i think i might need a tune to lower the torque

[@deadstockflaco]

Did you do the lockout kit while you were in there ?

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

Yessir. The lockout kit is a must have!

[@deadstockflaco]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial I’m upgraded driveshaft about to do my lockout with this

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

@deadstockflaco the car will feel awesome once you get them done. Whole different animal, especially when launching the car🤘

[@deadstockflaco]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial yes hopefully I’ll do it soon . See you at Osw one of these days ! Did you do the front AAD too ?

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

@deadstockflaco sounds good man, I'm trying to put a private rental together soon. You should come out! I only did the full AAD in the rear. The front is still stock.

[@ausz33crew17]

Did u get their full kit and can u fit 15s with it?

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

The 15" kit is a completely different kit from the AAD. I have the TCE 15" conversion and the AAD drag kit on my car.

[@zainanderson1705]

What springs are in the car

[@KelleysGarageOfficial]

Stock Redeye springs

[@zainanderson1705]

@@KelleysGarageOfficial I just seen you did the lowered springs when you first got the car

[@zainanderson1705]

But those where different
