This is when you lower the car according to your needs, and not listen to everyone telling you to go lower. Good luck and do what works for you bro!

i just brht the back up to match up with the front (left the front the same) it was sagging before.

drove around for two days and couldnt bear scraping the frame and exhaust.

i didnt realize the exhaust canister was down so low.

We need to see how your stance is.

As much as want mine lower, my normal driving routes are not conductive to that. Recently I've been driving a stretch of McFadden in Garden Grove that is root and rut ridden. Some crazy roads in So. Cal to deal with.

^ uploading right now! and im acutally at the place already.

ive been getting in and out fine, just have to get in at a really steep angle the entrance is really ugly and bumpy though.

ive bottomed out once and scraped once going out but only cause there were total of 5 people in the car :/



for some reason it doesnt look low in the pictures but front and back are tucked.

I always avoid McFadden now ever since i lowered my car and went into a pothole that popped my tire.
