Two weeks ago, added 25mm spacers all around. Really brought out the 4x4 in her. Was looking into lowering, but the project snowballed from $250 to $1600 real quick (due to all recommended hardware for new springs) and I can't afford that right now. Soon hopefully.

It's probably sitting high if you didn't drive it to settle the suspension after having the wheels off to install the spacers. The spacers won't change the ride height at all.

I got a great Black Friday deal on these 1/4" wheel spacers from CJPony parts. They are made like a Swiss watch and the packaging was superior.
I'm curious to see how much difference in performance and appearance a quarter-inch addition to each side of the track will make.

Yea, in that picture it was right after I dropped it from the jack stands. But it still has too much of a gap because tire is no longer tucked into the wheel well, so it accentuates the gap. I'm also getting a random vibration around 80-90 mph. I re-tightened everything twice. Going to see if tire shop can balance wheels better when I have time.

Picked up a nail in my right rear tonight. Hopped in the car and saw 18psi. FML.

I aired it up and looks like I’ll be getting it plugged tomorrow.

I’ve had the DB 351’s for a couple of weeks and today was a cold rainy day, perfect for being in the garage. I ordered these over a month ago through Walmart for $37 and at first they were back ordered and subsequently cancelled as no longer available. Amazon still has them but at $50 a pair. I haven’t wired in the bass blocker yet as I like the sound through the center/dash as is now. There are plenty of online videos for the dash panel removal. You need to be careful with the clips, not so much breaking them but having them come off behind the dash. I lost 4 and then had to play the old “Operation” game using double sided tape on the end of a mini screw driver to recover 3 of them. I thought I would post pictures of where the tabs actually are for those about to pull the panel so you know where they are. Start with the small trim panel on the passenger side and work you way left towards the steering wheel. The pictures didn’t post in order but you can figure it out. Happy modding.

Weather was decent today (40+) so garage was tolerable enough to get my PowerStop Z23 pads for the front Brembos installed.

Tomorrow looks promising as well so might knock out a couple other small to-do items.
