Black is hard enough...........but that big shade tree shadow is even worse.

Re: do your thing please!

Hi,

I've been following your posts since you have a short step like mine. Is this a 4/6 drop?

Thanks,
Jay

Re: do your thing please!

thats the math on it, what i did was had my control arms fitted on then removed the front spring and used a jack to go up and down until i got the desired look i was after, measured for the spring ( happend to be bout same height as a 1 inch drop spring), installed 1 in drop spring and 2.5 drop spindles (really wanted 2 in ,but couldnt find any) and
BOOM there your stance

Re: do your thing please!

I dig it! Just needed a mental picture on what mine is going to be. Looking for clearance issues etc etc. I think I'm going the 18s all around or 18 & 20s. Thanks for your time...

Jay

Re: do your thing please!

Here's one that longhair has done before. I just added the wheels. Maybe he can change it to black.
