    Looks much better. Gotta do a lot of measuring to find the widest tires possible

      Yeah I kinda jumped in thinking it was all gonna work out lol 😂

    1. no need to disconnect ball joints to lower. unecessary work.
    2. all dampers don't auto-extend, only ones with gas or oil/gas mix. oil only will not move by themselves.
    3. there are more outer splines than inner (29/31), subtle changes need to be don on outers only, or a combo of inner & outer.

    Short axles are the answer to making those tires fit

      That's what I was thinking, I don't think the offset of the wheel is great either...... so I'm probably going 2 put some stock tires on them just 2 see how they fit.... now the car sits lower I kinda dig the turtles so I might be spending some time cleaning them up.

    stance looks great, buddy! I dropped my fronts 3 and the rears 2. Pretty low, I know. and rides like garbage too haha.

      Yea mine doesn't ride bad even on the bumps I need 2 pull them and see how much lower it goes I'm probably going 2 have 2 lower the rear. I've been thinking about some adjustable spring plates

    You missed a good show today. The stance looks good.

      Yeah wish I would've run up 2 that Trav said it was a really good show.

    Good video. Haven't seen one from you in a while. Last one was the hard start and starter. I wonder if my 71 fastback was dropped a inch or two? Seems lower than Penelope did before you dropped it. When I have passengers it rubs slightly when turning sharp. I have stock tires on it. Still rides great. Good video. She is looking great.

      Definitely sounds lowered a couple notches! I've got stock tires on and no running but I'm definitely on the bump stops so I need 2 cut them down. Thanks for checking out the vid!

    Looks like mines I lowered it 2 clicks up front and still stock at rear

      Nice! 😜 I'm debating some adjustable spring plates for the rear of mine.

      That’s a good idea I never thought about it and you don’t have to mess with the torsion bar just adjust the plate

      @@reinaldorivera4158 that's what I'm thinking and you can really dial it in for the exact stance you're going for.

    Cut the bump stops, don’t fully remove them.

    • @mileageunknown8910
      @mileageunknown8910  Год назад +1

      That's what I'm thinking 🤔 I'm curious 2 see how much lower it goes might end up doing some adjustable spring plates in the rear

    • @bava67
      @bava67 Год назад +1

      Taking them off actually works well. If you were slammed I’d say to cut the metal stop holder off
