thanx guys, i just got an update on my car, and he hasnt put the camber kit in yet, he's going to do an allighment to see if i need it or not.. but its goin to be an extra 50 to put it in.. oh well.. but he said he took it for a spin around the block, and said it handled like an F1 car.. (he ?exadurates?) but he said it made a hell of a difference with it installed, and he said the car looks mean at the stance

ok guys, heres the car lowered and finished.. im lovin it.. gota get used to it.. but here it is..:



heres the passanger rear side.. why does it have a 2 finger gap?

front passanger

front driver

rear driver

front shot

front driver side corner shot.. so u can see how low the bumper and lip sit from the floor

so there it is guys.. when i hold the wheel straight, the car moves slowly but surely to the right.. probably means camber's off huh? well i told my uncle about it and he said bring it in tomarrow morning and they'll fix it..
and heres a question about how the steering wheel feels.. when im driving, i can kinda feel it viberating very very very softly.. its hard to explain it.. but its like a fine viberating.. is that just because i can feel more of the road? since im lowered? and another question is, when i go about 45+ i can hear and feel a LUM LUM LUM LUM LUM LUM LUM LUM like from the tires.. does that mean my tire balance is off?
tell me what you guys think.. any suggestions, comments, or questions.. go ahead and ask!! thanx again H-T.. and again, mod's.. please let this stay up for a while..

Uneven drop? That's one reason why I'm switching my springs out to Ground Controls.
I wouldn't bother w/ the camber kit, just get it aligned w/ the toe set to exactly 0 or as close as they can possibly get it.

well my cousin works at aol and he show'd this guy the pics, and he said that this is what he thinks:
that it might be the rubber cupling on the top of the spring.. he said theres a notch in the ruber cupling just like there is on the front shock (bottom part) for the spring to fall in, and he said if its not in, or lined up.. that it could cause ur car to be lifted just that much higher.. cuz it was hard for me to fit my middle and index finger in.. i had better luck with my ring and pinky finger...
does that sound like it could be a possability?
