3" left front and 4.5" left rear with spring preload just hand tight so virtually no preload.

I can't wait to put the air on the struts. These things have a ton of stroke so I'm hoping I can get one of the lowest out there.

Oh, finally someone laying frame (not too many people are actually laying frame)! I plan on doing that, but on 19s. Laying frame on 20s is impressive.

If laying frame on 20's is impressive... then what do you call laying frame on 22's?

Built the base of the trunk set up last night. Santi and I will have to figure out how to mount everything (may go with a level/stepped set up for the trunk) but I built the base just to get started.

Oh, it'll be covered in OEM-like fabric so please forgive how crude it looks without covering.

make sure you line the hell out of the inside of that wood with dynamat or some type of deadening material. That wood echos the like a mother effer!!! If your compressors are on it, its gonna be loud
