Hes the forum ricer, it wouldn't make sense if he upgraded.

That was you back in the day....
Ok not that bad but close(glare)

 

[ajkulish]

well i dont really have a choice there is no spring that drops 0.5

 

[nate0123]

You could just do front springs from a MSP, that would be about .5" drop I'd think

 

[ajkulish]

how bout rear?

 

[jonridinhi]

it is about a 3/4 inch drop all the way around. You will also have a better ride quality and handeling than if you hacked off your springs. Please do it right.....

Bro, if you rub getting in your driveway already, or with MSP springs, you're doing it wrong. You live in the suburbs of the midwest, driveways aren't steep. They all have the same standard bump up from the street.

Actually, if I were you, I would slam and scrape on everything, wear that mess away back to the oem bumpers.

I actually think it would look much, much better with a drop and larger, wider wheels & tires

no

Non slammers always think their roads are too steep and too ****** up not to slam, its cute. My roads are way JACKED but I do just fine

(yes) Only reason I have camber bolts is because of the 15mm spacers.

I was being nice with a simple no, but that works too. I am not slammed but if I go out of my driveway straight I would rip my lip off. It is called angles....

*fixed.

I miss 3 wheeling... My rear-end feels so sloppy. Need to re-weld my rear cross-member so I can remount my rear sway-bar. (sad2)

[speedracr79]

BTW its a 2 1/4 inch drop beats that ugly looking 5 finger gap that i had up front/rear when i started, right now i can barely fit my fat finger.......should i go lower???? wat do guys think??(limb) (breakn)

your ride looks sick with those rims I was actually thinking of those rims for my ride I got a 99LX but I wasen't sure how they would look, and now I know are they the silver or hyper black

I think I may be stopping by my brothers on Sunday to re-weld a nut back into the cross-member. Then the swaybar goes back on, and my suspension is done for the time being... MX-6 Rear strut bar may follow soon, tho.
