The main advantage to the coilover setup is that you can tune in what you like for your suspension ride.

We are working on doing a solid one-peice rear bracket kit but, it hasn't been done yet.
Is there any cutting or welding necessary to get a stance like the above?

I have the easy street controller also and it works nice.
You can buy just the controller then wire your own set up to valves or have a full setup with the aluminum valve manifold which is a very nice system .
Mine shows all 4 corners pressures and the tank pressure , and car voltage on the screen . I added silencers which slow down the rate of drop and make it quiet . Do NOT add these they will allow WATER to stay in the lines and not purge out (I live in Canada with winter, get the point) .
Always add a water trap and purge once a week.

Easy street is making a new controller which is wireless also.

There is another company making a very interesting set up which has height adjuster so it is always the right height and level no matter how much weight is in the car.

Good luck.
