Thanks PAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Recently got some new suspension goodies for the car. Pat Lierley aka : Fabman is the man behind this operation ! thanks buddy
looks like the front end is coming down to a more eye pleasing level... no more of that tractor status ! also, the rear suspension is still expletiveed from last year, so that is sitting about an inch lower than it should be.
with the car being able to come down, we will have to re mount the front end, as well as modify the framerail bottom on the driverside(wasnt done before) so the axle does not touch. as of right now, its hitting, nothing a little cutting wont take care of.
this is with alot of air pressure in the tires, and basicly no weight up there.

plenty of clearance for the axle

PM sent !
here is what we have now, to allow for the car to be lower in the front than it was last year.
these are Nitro knuckles with a 2 inch drop, the lowered knuckle is on the left, the oem hight is on the right

these are the forks made to compansate for the higher hub hight in the knuckle ( these were made for Ryan Smith and myself)
