well got started on it around 515 and finished up around 8 then spend 10 minutes wondering why the pass side sat 5 inches higher then the drivers. and found out the spring is hitting the exhaust and it was actually keeping it from lowring… so i did some pounding and now it sits about 1.5 inches higher… and i will be visiting jeff to modify my exhaust around the rear shackle. here is a pick of the kit ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0383.jpg](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0383.jpg) and the before from a different angle ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0353.jpg](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0353.jpg) and after the drivers side is where it will end up sitting. and remember i havnt done the front yet this is just the rear… the front will be another 2" ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0384.jpg](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0384.jpg) ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0386.jpg](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/000_0386.jpg) ---

WTF im so pissed right now. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/macs-rumble-bee/199643.md?page=1)
