finally

[JD]

shes lowered

spent the day with Paul @ RStuning today, after watching Russ' FKs go on yesterday.

here are the (slightly unfinished) results. i need spacers on the front due to the wheel being almost against the shock, so atm there is wrong camber on it. they will be arriving soon. then will be lower at the front, to match the rears

not sure what kinda mm im on, i went for "looks right IMO" ride height

anyways, enjoy!

4x4

also seriously needed new brakes, see the wear :S

massive thanks must go to Russ for ordering up, Paul for fitting and putting up with me meithering him, and both for the banter

my next thread will be pretty much the finished article, exterior (spacers and correct camber so it doesnt squeak round corners and the bumpstrip and bullets back and colour coded handles) and under the bonnet (few shiny bits and few blue bits (thanks mark ) to go in).

all comments welcome, and to a certain owner, of a certain lowered ****, no im not going lower, ye barsteward
