The point being IRRESPONSIBILITY and STUPIDITY. These are traits I detest regardless of age and certainly do not condone in my children.

Parents who accept and fund this type of behavior are probably the same ones who blame everybody but themselves when their kids screw up.

Anyway, we're way off topic here. Sorry

Not really, just clarifying my frame of reference regarding my statement

I'm sure you'd like a picture of what you're trading for but I'll get that up as soon as I learn how. (still new here and all)

Oh man I'd KILL to have my ride at that height, Gene...
(ok maybe I wouldn't kill, maybe i'd just squash a bug or something like that... hehe)

Hey did you ever answer Chevy4Life's questions? I wanna know too!

What kind of drop did you do? How much is it lowered? And how's the ride quality? Thanks

Actually I did it the wrong way by cutting the coils up front and lowering blocks out back (coil rear). It rides suprisingly well, but when turning sharp my tires chirp? It is lowered 3 inches or 1 full coil up front and 4 inches in back.

Thanks for all the compliments guys! I guess you all talked me into it especially the bigtime fans of stock heighth(CPNE) THAT WAS REALLY A SHOCKER! LOL..
