Nice! I guess you do sit a little higher if you have a 2LT.

Installation, last week, drove all this week and then got alligned this morning. Only needed small amount of toe adjustment. Did take several shops, that were not scared and knew enough, to check and adjust alignment. Did not need the camber bolts, yet. They did suggest, keeping an eye out for adjustable front shocks & struts, to tune re-bound and rideabliity!!??!

Rides some stiffer, no bottoming out problems, yet. Have not had any load. Some extreme drive-ways, you have to be careful, go in on angle.

I love the looks, and this week got more comments and people checking out the vheicle. My wife, is a little miffed on me changing the car. Just wait for the future plans, maybe a two-tone flamed paint change!!!

Later!!!
Mark

Might be, but in real life, it is an aggressive stance and look.

BTW, Captain, I have separated the Grill bars you sent. Looks like, I will use one stock bar, in the lower grill area. Two with stock spacing, would not fit, proper. Work in progress.

Thanks and talk at you later!!!

I have Ghost Flames on mine. Not sure if you've seen them. Like the lowering. I have a hitch also. You don't hit going over speed bumps???

I do like Ghost Flames, subtle, but nice. My front tint has flames done in a slightly different color. See Gallery, pick one of my pictures, scroll down, site has a link to see all pictures, posted by myself.


Have not had a problem yet with Hitch & Speed Bumps, one extreme driveway, got it a little, nothing major.

The hitch really is not that low, my wife has a VW Beetle, we added a hitch for bike rack, and it is real close to the ground.
