They cleared the chat thread Tevi. Are you sure you want to go any lower Tevi? That driveway looks scary

Hey Peng_I'm currently working on getting a gutter bridge/ramp made so that I can go lower and still make it up and down the driveway easy. Until I find something at a reasonable price, I'll stick with my current ride height.

Just do what I plan....just going to make an H frame w/ to 2x10" boards. Easy to hop out, put it on the driveway, drive it out...pick it back up and be on you're way. There's alllllways a way to get around it if ya REALLY want to ;-)

SOOOOOOOOO... Last night, i got home at about 830 and decided that I'll put on my sways (sounds pretty good so far doesn't it). I started with the rear since i heard that its the harder of the two. i got the stock one out in about 10 to 15 min and thought i should think about what stiffness i want before the install so i spent some time thinking about that (still good so far)...... THEN I go to grab the bushings to grease them and the instructions said to grease the 15-16" bushing for the rear.

WELL... one pair had no writing on em and the other said 1 1/8". I said to myself that the 1 1/8 one is probably for the back since its the smaller of the two and that its a typo since there's "no way" they missed up shipping the wrong bushing. after i greased em, i slip on the bushings and they're F'n way toooo big

So i put the old one back again.

I should have taken pix to show the before and after but of course i was lame and too excited i forgot.

Also i did a oil change on Tuesday on my G and my Blazer any my GFs camry and detailed her car and my blazer (which is just by chance for sale 3500 obo!) and troubleshoot my Gs sound system with finding out its not my AMP that is shot it was 1 of my dual coils on my HX2 sub! good thing i had 2 swapped that punk out and POW i got my bass back!

Sorry to hear man. There's nothing worse than starting a project that you can't complete and needing to undo everything you just did. One of the LEDS I swapped into the turn signals went out and I'm SOOOO not looking forward to changing it back out
