Finally got the front bagged







Well I bagged the front with the AVS upper plate and lower 2inch cups was going to have a forum member (short crew) cup the arms but I ran into some issues trying to get metal. Still plan on cupping them later. So my question is can you unbolt inner fender or does it have to be cut out. Im about two inches from control arms on the ground inner fender is sitting on tires I'm running a 255/35/20.**

Yeah now I got the bug I want to go lower I guess I will remove inner fenders and might get my control arms cupped but I'm satisfied with the front drop

Ya thats the pic i forgot to take i will go out and get one today it is still not on the ground. I guess you could trim the cups more but why risk rubbing might as well just cut and weld in cups.
