Sold those a few months ago when I thought I had a deal on another set of wheels but it feel through. Text me in the next couple of days as I'm heading to reidsville either Saturday or Sunday and we can meet up.

I really wasn't a fan of it either but I can't find one thing wrong with the look right now, other than I want Megan coilovers to help lower the rear another inch.

Dan, I agree the poke/stretch is perfect...coils with a slight negative camber and you should be good to go

Yup, can't wait until Saturday. Have rotors and pads I'm putting on also but probably won't do those Saturday as I don't need to be breaking in the brakes in while figuring out ride height.

Dan, take some lithium grease and cover the threads with it....I would take the shocks out of the lower body and coat the entire thing and then put them back in....

you dont want them threaded body to seize

You think I should take everything off and coat them or just the lower body part? I can preload them again if I need to.
