Sorry for the spine...I guess we all start falling apart as we age.....

Suspension travel is about 26 inches... 3.wheeling can break the sway bars so I don't even attempt that....no springs no hopping...struts and accumulators...

Am I the only one that was shaking my head when I saw how low it was? This should be on an episode of "when lowering cars too much". No offense, admire your work and dedication and I know it can be raised up but OIIII..You took a classy machine and made it look ricey and then sealed its faith with those LEDs.
