As for stereo equipment, I have a single 12", and a medium sized amp. I do not think this is the factor, although I could be wrong. As for a suspension replacement, the car has ~59000 miles on it, so that may or may not be an issue. Very interesting thoughts, though, and I will examine them both. Thanks for your insight.
