Wink The 4x4 is dead!!!

With gas prices rising ever so swiftly, I decided to get rid of my 4x4 today, here she was at 7 this morning.... I could put my fist over the rim with the stock suspension....





As for how I'm going to get her lower to the ground, here's the answer:


Big props to my NELOC bretheren Rising Sun for taking pity on me and donating his day to my boo boo

Now you may ask what I was doing while he was out there: Hmmmn?



Nah, I lent a hand and a wrench but he didn't need me. And here are the results





Once again, many props to Rising Sun and the rest of the NELOC family..... Now I just need for these to settle in and see if I can still make it into my backyard....
