Got bored and couldn't wait for susp - sorry no pics yet...

I got bored last nite, I get home way earlier than i used to from work, so I picked up Pirates of the Caribbean: World's End from Target, lol, cooked dinner for the family and threw my wheels on the CL.

Man, I didnt realize it would look so high, lol. 4 finger gap FTL! But in looking at it, I probably could have gotten away with just doing the KYB/Eibach drop on it.

I however already put in my order with Mr Marcus and will be picking TEIN Basics up Sat. and after install get an alignment and have them adjust the toe to zero.

I'll see if I can snap a camera phone pic at lunch and post it up.

The kyb/eibach is a nice drop, but you'll be happier with the basics, and you can control the height you want your car at.

yea, you should be good with basic's, they have pretty soft spring rate's i think only like 6/5ish, compared to my ksports (on the legend) at 13/9!! i had about the same spring rates (6/5) with my ground controls/koni setup, excellent ride, imo

i'm still hungry btw, where that dinner u made for the CL family

okay, i feel better, a little, what started as an inexpensive daily is slowly gaining $$$ momentum, lol. After the drop, I think I'm pretty much done with the exception of some maint items and a set of rear mud guards.

Oh and Alperovich, I think you would have liked it, lol, we had some leftover meatloaf from Boston Maket - I threw it together with some fresh gravy, sliced mushrooms and sliced russett potatos - baked in a convection oven for 45 mins at 325 degrees.

Hmmm, that was good, everyone seemed to enjoy it and thought I made the meatloaf fresh, lol.

Not my best recipe, but it worked.
