Specs on the combo please.

Depending on the suspension combo, and how shot your springs are now you make actually raise your car. Before I did my suspension my front wheels almost tucked in the fender, now there's about 1/2" gap. Perfect for my combo though.

Nice. Need to hose out the fenderwells though. With the massive amount of space between the tires and fenders, that dirt really shows.............
