eh, it is kinda low

ya man, get your ish together! It better be done when I come back out there in January.

 

LOL thats pretty low man haha i was thinking like really 4x4 status.

and i like the hood idea with teh stickers that looks cool

 

yeah bro that is as low as it will go, which sux for you cause..IT NEEDS MOAR LOW.. Hey can you front still go lower?

 

Hey bro we have the v2, he has the v1 so you dont need to worry our rears dump bro.

 

WHEW!

Com'n MAY!

 

Well I got around to putting mine in yesterday since the weather is getting better. I have the newer TYPE II's and the rears slam low. However, it appears some of us have different results in the front. Right now I have 0 finger gap (minor tuck) yet still have about an inch+ left to lower and that's with all perches in and on stockies for now. Took them out for a ride last night and man, for a daily driver, these are 100x better for the streets compared to the JICS. So much smoother, no more breaking my back.

Daily driver / comfort - FF Type II
Track / handling - JIC

Another interesting fact was the rears were a lot harder to put in than the JICs I have but I finally got them mounted. Time to clean up the JICs and then...i dk lol.

 

F&F have dampening adjustments correct? I was almost thinking of picking some up cause I want something that won't travel as much so I don't rub so much on medium bumps.

 

yea, and i won't have a collapsed lung either! hahaha

nono. if theres gap between wheel and fender it's 4x4

yea, it SUCKS. i need more low, or at least wheels to fill the gap. you think 18x10 +15 will fill?


front can go lower actually, i'm about to test it tomorrow to see how low i can REALLY get them and also going to remove all perches from the rear and lower the spring all teh way to see if the decreased shock travel will lower the rear more.

 

yea, they do...i havn't quite figured that out yet though as theres no sticker on mine telling me which direction everything goes!

 

Righty Tighty...Lefty Loosey

 

lol, i know, it makes the inside thing go up and down but what hte hell does that mean. i'm increasing dampening? decreasing? what exactly am i incrreasing or decreasing, am i decreasing resistance? am i increasing resistance? or am i making it softer or harder?

lol. THAT'S what i meant.

 

i just put my progress coils on and...

 

my fronts go lower.

i need a new set for the rear lol.

 

I'll sell you my old rear suspension (Ground Control coils). Everything is still assembled so you can just slap them on.

 

dude, no need to buy new rears, i have a simple fix, but it will require some permanent mods

all you gotta do is cut out the piece in the red box, which will allow you to lower the perch lower and still lock it in place!

like so



this i what i wanted to do with my version 1, type 1 fronts to go lower but the sway bar bracket prevents me from doing this!

seriously, this is your fix!

 

the man above me has the answer.

 

or get custom shorter springs..

 

^mines cheaper, lol

 

i sent this thread to marcial..

 

does that lower the amount of shock travel and make the ride bouncy?
