Got car lowered about 2" all around. probably close to stock height as last guy put BB front springs in and cargo variable rates in rear.

replaced all 4 springs, all shocks with Qa1 adjustable, upper/lower control arms.
removed rear ladder bars. Got 1" rear sway bar that will go on next week.
previous owner put rear lower control arms are on backward!!!

1 3/8" front hollow sway bar. last week electric fan with new big aluminum radiator.. she is driving nice now.

I like it much better ,it was a little high .I need to raise my Elky a little in the rear ,it looks like Im hauling moonshine and the air shocks wont hold for long.Im considering air bags in the rear coils just to level it up.
