Dropped My C25 Rear With 1/2-ton Springs

Collective wisdom said the ride height would not change and I would just get a smoother ride but it dropped 1.25". Very happy with the look. Very close to level now. Sorry for the bad pics. Didn't want to pull it out in the rain. :-)

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"

Cruising around today. Outside pic for you to show the dropped rear. Mufflers are hitting slightly over big bumps now so I need to address that.
