I finally got around to dropping the front about 3 inches, as well as painting the stock wheels and installing a disc conversion. Now she drives and stops straight and handles like a go-cart!

i think it looks good the way it is. it still looks like the suspension can work, and maybe even handle well. when they get too low, they just look like lowriders.

I could go about 2 inches lower but I would have to notch out the body where the tie rods go to the rack. I'm happy with where it sits now though....
