Re: lowered too

kida waiting to see if the front will sag a bit, if not will cut some coil, i know not the best idea, but there was a step side on here that had taken his front down 5 inches and the rear 7, but I got so many issue to work on, gota do some front end work next , seems like my lower "A" arms have some play in it?
