LOWERED TEH STANG! PICS!!!11!11!1WON!!!1

[DFG 5OH]

Ok for Christmas I got a set of Maxspeed (ebay special) lowering springs. Put em on, and ta-da! Now my car is not a 4x4 anymore. The install was very easy, took 4 hours, me and dad did it, if we had to do it again tomrrow, it would prolly take less than 2 hours. Here's the install pics, and before and after pics.

Right Here You Can See That The Drivers Side Rear Spring Was Broken, and Looks Like It Was Broken For A While

sorry for the crappy pics...i'll get it cleaned up soon, and get some better pics, i had to snap the outside ones before it got dark.

looks real nice man...those are the ones i want...although i may have found a sweet deal on some sportlines in nj near me...did u use c/c plates? or do you plan on it? hows your alignment?

 

[DFG 5OH]

well i havent got the front aligned YET, but its straight as an arrow. I'm NOT gonna get new CC plates, but i do need an alignment, the bottom on my wheels stick out more than the top, and you can REALLY see it.

this is why you need c/c plates man...your alignment will never be good w/o em...anything more than 1.5 inches and u really need em

i had those springs, but i took em out. My car needed cc plates, and a bumpsteer kit....anyhow, they were great, i just needed more lift.

Looks good dude. Get better pics up pronto.

lowering the car made such a big difference in handling over my worn out blow suspension to compare to before when i bought the car. i reccomend adjustable shocks to everyone too, its nice to be able to set it right where you like it. i have strange adjustables all the way around and man when i turn the settings up the car feels like it really wants to handle

yeah those struts look pretty shot, i would replace those and youll notice a huge difference

I thought it was 2 inches or more that you needed CC plates?

Nice matt. cant wait to see it in person. ill be out this weekend, got the car running. Oh yeah!!!

not what i've heard...either way, thats a 2" drop which = c/c plates

 

[Blackened302]

i second the c/c plates and get that alignment as soon as you can. a guy i know lowered his civic and stupidly let his car eat through 9 tires before he decided to get some c/c plates and get it aligned.

glad you were able to lower it--looks a crapload better... no more 4x4, hehe.

 

[DFG 5OH]

thanks guys

 

[MysteryMachine]

yeah i would suggest getting struts and cc plates atleast new struts before the alignment or you'll be paying twice. When i got mine aligned after my suspension stuff it was so far off it cost me almost 200 bucks just a heads up that it might cost a litle more after changing ****

 

[sade04]

hey matt how about some more pics? Do you know exactly how much of a drop they give you? i checked on ebay and yeah they dont cost much at all so im thinking about getting them. thanks

 

[DFG 5OH]

i'll get some better pics when its cleaned up and the springs settle
