| Franklin is running a 5" narrowed on his 58' rag beetle. I think he's going to put on BRM's but I'm not sure what tire size...at least a 195/50/r15. |

| Nice lookin' Bug man, but your rear wheel negative camber is outta control...how do you get in and outta driveways? Not doggin', just curious. |

| Do you have airbags on there, too, or is just all in the readjusted suspension? That's cool if you can get around, nothin' like a low-slung VW! |

| No bags on my ride...it's all natural :D I can still go lower in the front w/ just the adjustable beam, right now I'm rubbing a tie-rod on the steering box or gas tank, so I'll have to run the kit where you flip the rods and run them from underneath. |

I've seen the gas tanks lifted up on a 1 1/2" square tube frame, Just a thought? |

| That's a good idea. I think franklin said I was rubbing the steering box too, so I'd have to go w/ the underneath method. Meanirish: are you from seattle or grew up here, or are you just mocking the Sonics? |

Thanks Bill
MeanIrish...that's cool. It's hard to root for them when they play like crap, but I still watch them and root anyways. If you move, come closer to seattle so you can cruise w/ the rest of us from Franklin's. |
