    For sure, Look into rollin' them regardless, one less thing to worry about in the future.

    Yeah, when you lower a car drastically, the drive shaft will rub at the end of the driveshaft tunnel. I guess I sorta jumped the gun on being able to take pictures, the car is still at my friend's house for paint and that fun stuff.

    But! I'll get you pictures when I'm throwing the car back together, it isn't too exciting, just a big aluminum block jamming the axle up, but I've got pics of my car in my profile.

    The downside to doing this is: if you go as low as me, your suspension travel will suffer, so I think a 2-3 inch drop would suit you better then my 5 or so inch one. I've pretty decent roads in Indy.

    But like I said, I'll get you some pictures asap!

    No worries man i appreciate it! Yeah i wasnt thinking too drastic of a drop just 2 or 3 inches. But like im curious to like actual inches heigth to what peoples cars are sittin at. Just so i know how much i really should drop it.

    this causes some concern with speed humps locally, especially if its loaded up, the ch***is seems to be the main point of contact.
