First chance to get the wheels on. He's nice and low but couldn't quite get on the floor. Couple of tweaks to make... The rear bags only compress to 8.5" so I think I need spacer cups to get that down. That way I can use more of the bag range for the firestone 9000rear sleeve bags. As for the front, got a leak on the drivers side and aired out I am sitting on the bag cups with about an inch and a half from the running boards to the floor. Guess who is ordering 2" lowering spindles haha.
