Just lowered my car!
 
I did this all in a friend's garage yesterday. The install was not too bad. I installed Maier Racing springs for a 2" drop, Koni Double-Adjustable shocks and struts, and Pro3i Caster/Camber Plates. I already had Global West LCA's installed. I now have about 4" of ground clearance to my off-road H-pipe. :D But I have not scraped on a single speed bump yet! Hmm maybe I should go lower!

Here is the before pics:

Be on the lookout for an install article for the Pro3i Caster/Camber plates soon!

Looks awesome! When I dropped mine, I hit everything!! I sweat going over raised manhole covers! :eek:

Lookin good, I love the way SN95's look when they're lowered

btw, your brake fluid is a tad low :D

Rebel79 03-21-2002 10:36 PM

Yeah I need to change my break fluid! :D

Thanks guys..... the car handles GREAT! I adjusted the suspension yesterday and got it aligned today. The car handles like it never has before and finally it is stable at high speeds.

The job search is going slow......for now.

THAT LOOKS GREAT! Your car is awesome! Love those white cars!!!! Ya, I"d love to lower mine, but then i'd SURELY tear up my side exaust. I"ve allready cratered the pass. side skirt twice and have cracked it. :( Although speedbumps and inclines arent as bad as i thought. specially if your going fast enough, you catch air! hahaha!
Looks cool! Beautiful car! :cool:
50patrol...hahahhaha! u noticed that!!! LOL! :) Luv your new Avater!!!! :D Dang, i almost thought you were SRV for a minute...duh! hahahahah

fiveohpatrol beat me to it, but yes, your brake fluid needs some attention.

As far as the car, well Scott, IMO, that's how they should look in the first place! Awesome job! Car looks great! I also love your small collection of pine needles on the frame in the front! :D :D

Nice job! Really.

Take care,
-Chris
