Looks good. Remember it will settle over the next couple days and maybe get a bit lower.

I can't wait till mine is off the 4x4 suspension

:laughing4: Well, I guess I've never heard it put in those terms, but I do like a moderate drop on these cars. Just looks right.

What components are you using? What is the drop supposed to be when done? 1.5"?

Nice work.

Does the 1.5" drop require a change in shocks/struts? I noticed a new looking shock in the rear, in one of your photos above.

How's the ride/handling?

I am putting new shocks in just cause 1 was leaking and bent, i dont think it is required but a reasonable upgrade while you already have the spring and control arm lowered. Handling in tr back seems much stiffer and has a more planted feel! And... It looks killer!
