Default just a teaser because verizon sucks and im bored at work.

Well im stuck at work (verizon retail store) and since today is national pay your bill and not make any sales associates any money day, its not too exciting.


so last night i got my new coils on (thanks again weedahoe)

went on easy, waiting for my shocks to come in so i can drive it. This puts me at 47.5 up front and 45" in the rear. No more sagging front end


also got my new subwoofer, Resonent Engineering SEx model D4 12, invert mount in a single slot port box. Its pretty loud.


So heres some pics i took a few ago in the parking lot at work.. ive got a magic erase wheel in the mail, so once i get debadged ill do a real shoot.


Oh, and ignore the mirrors lacking.. well.. mirrors. long story.






heres a before to show the difference.



Enjoy

the lift coils? its not bad.. youll need two jacks, a friend to help/spot, about three hours, and refreshments.

its not bad at all. knocking the ball joint loose/replacing it is your biggest PITA. other than that its really just alot of turning wrenches and playing with jacks.

im using the CST coils and as of right now, they delivered a true 3" of lift for me.

but keep in mind, you WILL need new shocks, and an alignment.

ive got two sets of spacers if you want a little cheap lift for the front.

Thanks for the kind words.

Theyre 20x10 Motto MT 700 wheels and 35x13.50x20 Procomp Xtreme Terrain A/Ts.

Theyre not too loud, grippy when i need em, and look great for an A/T. Very pleased with them.
