It's open for interpretation. It has nothing to do with drooling.

Well that's good. I sure wouldn't need a tissue since IMO, there is nothing terribly special about your beams nor would I ever spend that kind of money on one of your beams. So, I wouldn't be crying or drooling. I might sneeze on one, though :wink:

all he did was post his beams in a thread titled "narrowed beams" and you jump down his throat... then turn around and say his stuff is great... :roll:

I simply asked what the tissue box implied. No where did I say his parts were crap. To me, the tissue box was an implication of someone drooling over them. A senseless and unnecessary play. That's all. No harm or foul was meant.

A tissue box to me represents those lonely nights with "Rosey Palm and her 5 sisters".....

5" narrowed Punchdrunk Customs beam on our 56 daily driver... rides and handles like a dream! Matt's a stud, and his beams are top notch... and his ego is in check, unlike some other guys...

is the car drivable being this low ? would i have to do anything else besides lowering it ?

You have to narrow the beam and tie rods and either buy the flipped tie rod kit or raise the gas tank and trim the body to clear them. Some people have issues with the headlight buckets, too. I cut them out.

Nice press brake work there Airkewld. The big center plate looks to be 1/4" and the die marks seem to point out the use of a 1.5 or 2" die for those 135* bends. Those center pieces for the adjusters is what caught my eye. That's some tight gooseneck work, or as I like to say "Finger Grabber Bending". Nice fab work sir. :D
