Re: Lowered 86 question

Have any pics of your bumpstops? My 83 sits about the same as yours but is lowered with just springs, had to cut bumpstops down.

Re: Lowered 86 question

I will get some pics also tomorrow of my lowers & what is cut off of it.
I like the way it looks (sets) without the motor in it better...Here is a pic without the motor.

Re: Lowered 86 question

It looks like you have the pic thing figured out. Just so you know, we have a free gallery here. If you ever move your P/B pics it will kill the link. Upload them to our gallery and they are there forever.

Re: Lowered 86 question

I will get my daughter to show me real quick.......She is on KissAzz status with us rite now anyway.

Note to self......Don't loan a 16 yr old your collector cars!!!!!

She did this Saturday on the way to the river to go boat riding with us......Dad let her drive her favorite car in my collection and she drove it to the river with the E=Brake on & it was on fire when she pulled into the club at the river.........Thank god we got the fire out!!!

I needed another beer after that!
