just FYI, i heard that if you take the bump stops off you will lower the car another 5/8".

i'm leaving mine on also because i plan on getting some meat back there.

wassup crystal and rob haven't seen yall in a while the TA is definaltly coming along nice the drop looks good. glad to see yall are doin good maybe ill see yall at one of the meets just been real busy with the wife and baby. and all you need is a BFH to fix clearance issues with the back tires and you can keep your bump stops.
