Default All I want is an answer!!!!

My stratus seriously lacks in th handling deparment. Ive spent many nights crying & searching for an answer to my question. I want to solve the body roll & handling. do I need to change the springs? or the shocks? I believe its the springs. but I cant find a place that sells them. ebay has the no name brands but i want to go 4 a sure thing. Any help?

He's got an 05 SXT I believe. The R/T has a different suspension and larger wheels.

the kit I posted in my earlier post is a great kit, and it replaces shocks and springs.....great kit....

The only downside to my Stratus sitting so low is it sucks getting in my driveway lol.

I do however know what you're talking about. My stepdad has a 03 SE Stratus Sedan. It does have some roll to it, and it is not as smooth in the turn as my R/T. However, you are talking apples and oranges, with a coupe vs. a sedan.

I think that kit would indeed help you out quite a bit, but understand your car was never meant to be a performance vehicle. Good luck! You might talk with Thump186 as he has a Stratus Sedan and he's probably the most informed on the sedans.
