New Year Teaser

Some more updates:
Made a front plate mount so I can run a front plate when I'm out of state and what not. This is just a mock up. Took it back apart to get proper sized hardware and painted the brackets black.
Also, turned the collars down a couple spins on the coils. I had to put the car up on 2x4s in order to get the jack out. With the car on 2x4s, if it was any lower, I would literally not have been able to get the jack out from under the side of the car, it is too low to even consider jacking up the car in front, have to go from the sides.
also put in a new axle. Damn, the old one was so sloppy and limp. New one is nice and stiff and firm............
......that's what she said.

Front plate bracket done. Brackets are painted black and got all the right hardware
And another coil off on the backs and a couple spins down on the front perches
Still want it lower though. Depending on how the ride is with another coils off in the rear, will probably take one more coil off and drop the front a couple more spins. lol

Not yet, but I'm driving out to Virginia for spring break and I figure not having a front plate is just another thing they can pull me over and make me pay on the spot if I'm out of state.
lol. I wish. compared to a lot of the VW/Audis, I'm still monster trucking, I know I'll never get as low as those cars do, but I want to be close! haha.

Haha. Nah, I was sure to be real careful. That's as far as I went in the picture. I backed out and took the other side of the alley....I actually ripped off my front license plate back down the ramp to the alley. Haha.
