Default Bringin' the booty down..

Finally got rid of the Joe Dirt jacked up redneck racecar look and brought the rear down just enough to give it a nice even stance.






Unfortunately it was raining so I didn't pull it out of the garage for better shots, but it's already a sight for sore eyes!

So you're running lowering springs on the rear, but not the front? More details please.

Wish I could tell you, but it's been raining for like a week down here so it just sits in the garage. Hopefully I'll have it out a bit this weekend. I'm hoping not to run into any clearance issues with the rear tires either..
