Thanks Tyler!!!

Not bad extension for a land yacht. Makes me start to wonder.....does turning the shocks all the way down only just let the tires fall away from the car? I mean really, from that picture all the car DIDN'T lift 6-8" was the tires. So if the shocks were set all the way up, would they still be close to the car, i.e. off the ground? Or would the front of car be 6-8" lower & hugging the ground?

I know the shocks let you get the push from the front springs instead of controlling them, but like I said....

You're welcome.

IMO, You're getting the weight back on the rear tires where you need it. The tires are still close enough to the ground where if **** were hitting the fan your tires aren't far away from being able to steer you out of trouble.

Also coming down from a wheelie will do a number to your car after a while. I'd definitely err on the side of longevity and want exactly what you have going on now.

I do admit it'd be a sick as hell picture getting a shot of that TA in the air from the front 3/4 view.

The only solution to the problem is more power.

So... Just for fun ...
