Not really tucking yet, but im on my way. I just noticed the fendered have already been rolled from the previous owner, but im gonna shave them off.

I'm just nervous to drop anymore. I have about one inch of clearance when taking this large speed bump at a aggressive angle. If i saw a speed bump with the smae height but shortened, i'd probabbly drag all the way across it?



A pic of the same bump, not as agressive of an angle. The cat scrapes, errr i beleive thats the cat?

Eh i dont know about that. I went over one of thoe fairly striaght on and i draged the last half of the car over. didnt sound good.

can't heavy scraping do damage? Or is it, as long as i dont **** the oil pan ill be ok?

I wanna go lower! Also where do you guys get alignments? My car is too low to get aligned at the tire shop.

yea..alignments can be a problem when slammed..*****..a lot of things can be a problem when slammed..but we find ways around it..i went to a big O tires around my area and they used some blocks of wood as a ramp for me to get on..not sure if many other places will do that..they might jus turn u away

my tire place in the OC has a nice alignment rack. the rack goes underneath the ground so when you drive on, its even with the ground. perfect for low cars
