Sl55 height level
Hey guys my name is Joe I'm new here and thanks to all in advance! I'm sure this question has been asked and answered but I can't find help. Lol I installed lowering links on my 03 55 it looks fanstastic and really has no issues with rubbing I have 2 question I need answered 1. Are they safe for the car? 2. Is it safe to drive the car with the suspension button raised for the most part or does it cause more wear and tear on shocks? I ask that because I'm unsure of how the system works is it adding more pressure to the shock even though with the new links it's at the same height fully raised as it was stock lowered? Thanks again

looks good, no damage because of lowering. if it doesnt have adjustable camber bolts in front you need to put them in. Then you have to have it aligned. you should align in hi position, and drive it usually in hi. this keeps the alignment as good as possible. and reduce tire wear
