Well, i finally dropped the car. Here are some pics before and after, and some in between.

before



The Install


Fronts on


DONE!

 

They'll look even better once they settle some more!
Are you rolling on stock shocks and struts?

 

ya :?

 

nice. bare feet?! man, that takes cojones.

 

nah, thats my buddy that was helping me. I was wearing sandals

 

Wait till it settles it'll look uber sexy.

I've been running my stock shocks and struts for nearly 3 years, they are about to go soon.

 

just curious, what are you going to get for replacement?

 

Im look at konis, but they may be too rich for my blood, also looking at trd's

 

Very nice! How do you like that TRD Rear Sway Bar?

 

I like it. Sway bars are great for the price

 

Looks good, man. I've never seen the MB Drifters in black; they look really nice.

Just wait til it settles.

 

i think you missing springs boot or you dont need one with aftermarket springs?

 

Oh yea... did you put the rubber boot at the bottom of the rear springs? It's hard to tell.

And also, you might as well be ready to tighten the top hats up front in a week or two. You'll likely start hearing a clunking noise after they settle in; just tighten the 17mm up again and you're good to go.

 

ya, i did. It was hard to get it to stay on while we were getting the springs on. We ended up using zip ties to keep them in place

also, im not sure which 17 mm you are talking about

 

The 17mm at the top of the front struts will probably require re-tightening in a a week or two.

 

ahhh, are those the ones that were covered in grease under the hood?

 

What size wheels are those? Just curious. I was looking at those exact wheels a few months ago, but ended up staying on steelies. I'm going to end up purchasing in spring with my tax return, lol.

 

the rims are 17"s and the tire is a BF Goodrich 215/45/17

 

Looks good thanks for the pics, this is still something I have yet to do.

 

The drop looks good, thanks for the pics.
