    Im looking at the site and I see this

    ZZPerformance - Shorter Dogbones #ZZ-SHTDB

    Does this really work? Or is it gonna be the worst $30 I could ever spend?

    I was thinking of doing like 1" shorter all around. Would that be too much or just keep it stock height?

    just get a set of vinnie's spacers. They work like a charm.

    Only reason to get shorter dogbones is if your lowered and even then the better option would be to get vinnie spacers plus unless you don't plan on getting headers...shorter dogbones don't work with headers.

    a) those are overpriced. get them off a pontiac montana minivan from a junkyard, that's what those are. $5.

    b) 1" shorter is too short, you want about 3/4" shorter. get a stock set and cut them down with a new hole that you drill. $free.

    c) none of the 'benefits' weigh out unless you're lowered. car not lowered, no need for shorter bones. ever.
