      Pretty good, I think the front still seems to high though! Back looks pretty good thoug, and your car looks good even in that shady weather. ;)

                      Shit, that rear looks pretty low for all the way up. Are those 6" rear springs?

                      I'm starting to get worried. I may need 7" rear springs. :shock:

                        Nice setup Beau, it's good to see a nice suspension under the car. 8)

                        Disregard the 'slam that shit' statements, there are plenty of downsides to it being 'to the floor.' However, the rear is very low for being all the way up, but I bet you have shorter springs. I get ~1" of fender/tire clearence with mine all the way up. You might see an improvement with the front taken down a notch; little more camber.

                        What tires are you running?

                          Mystikal - I have the 5 inch springs, I kind of wish I would of got the 6 inch springs.

                          Stu - This is about as low as it is going to get, I may lower the front so the rear doesn't look so low. I know my rear subframe bushings are shot, the guy that did my alignment said they look like they are about to break, so I need to get those replaced asap, I am thinking that might raise the rear up a little more for me. As for the tires they came on the car when I bought it a few years ago, they are Dayton tires. Personally never heard of them before.

                            5 in springs. 2.5f/2.25r drop this is pretty much all the way down at the rear.

                            all the way down, on a slope.
