I got mine on Wednesday. Still waiting on the camber kit and for the weather to warm up enough to be able to work in the garage before I can install them.

Shipping sets every week. That was the biggest sale weekend in Pfadt history. I guess we've gotten too popular for our own good lol. We have our guys working OT and shipping like crazy. Sit tight, PM me your order info and I can see where you are in line. I have a huge batch coming off the testing dyno any day now

Did you order them directly from Pfadt or a vendor that also sells them?
When I ordered a set on sale from a vendor it took close to 2 months to get them. I was told at the time from the vendor, that the manufacturer Pfadt was on hold for some parts?? This was when they first came out back in 2011 if I remember right. Probably a supply and demand thing back then.

That's Crazy Wes..... Nov-Feb.... As you know, I run the Pfadts and am a fan ( we have talked) but with your experience... hell you could have driven to LGM in about 30 min from your house and picked up yourself.... Crazy....

Not yet. Still waiting on the camber kit.
The instruction pdf has recommended settings for ride height and shock damping. I plan to start there and adjust based on feel.

Scooter, what camber kit did you get? I bought my car used and the front was pretty much lowered all the way with the stock bolts and the rear was riding pretty high. With this weather I haven't been able to drive it very much after the install, so I can't comment on settling. I did lower the perches about 6 rotations lower on the coils from how pfadt shipped them. Front ride height went down about 1/8" and the rear is a full inch lower. I know I need an alignment, hope I don't need a camber kit..car looks and drives great the couple times I took it out. Damper settings are at pfadt's recommended "street" settings

I thought about getting the Pfadt coilovers instead. But after reading the above, I guess I'm gonna have to wait either way.

Ive been running the feather lights for a year now. They are very good and do a lot for comfort and handling. Worth the wait. Pfadts just overloaded right now. I only just got my headers I ordered on black friday. Long wait, but they are so worth it. 50whp and tq from them. Great quality stuff.

If just driving around i put them all the way loose. Its very comfy. If you want to go out and have fun, simply reach under at all 4 corners and tighten them up. When I drag Ive found loose up front and stiff in the rear works well.
