Mind you, I'm also body dropped. Like I said I have no clue as to why I don't sit much lower.
Thanks for the pics Trace. Hate to ask, but if you wouldn't mind posting some of it while on ground? It is weird you're not lower, and with body drop. How does it ride with both? What is your measurements? Ground to fender? Center hub to fender? Always liked your ride, looks clean. And love the body drop how-to!

I only have spindles, and keys. And keys r only cranked like 2 turns down from top. So I have more drop to go, but sitting at 31.5" ground to fender, 17" center hub to fender. Would like a little lower.

I'm just worried if I do drop arms, I'll get too low in front and back will be up. What to do, what to do. Still wonder why you didn't get as low?? Idk ur measurements, but from sig pic, would expect a little tuck.

You;re welcome Austin. Do you want suspension pics with it on the ground or side pics? The first and second pictures of the uca/bj are on the ground. The last 2 are with the wheel off. With my 305/35/24 (32.4" tall) I was at 32.5" the last time I measured. I just put on some stock 20's so that will change a little. I will get those measurements and other pictures to you when you let me know the exact pics you want.

It rides fine. The only thing I would change would be to use rubber body mount bushing instead of the polyurethane as it is more noisy and rides a little rougher. It's not that bad though. If it were I would redo it with the rubber mounts.

Thanks for the complements, I've always liked your ride too! Although I liked your other wheels better :crazy:

If you added arms you would be REALLY low! Probably too low to even drive unless you tub the front or get some very small wheels.

Thanks Trace. I actually still have my old wheels laying around. Never knowing when things will change. But billets were always on the list. But I did like the old sets, a little different.

If you could post some side shots, and pics of front when compressed or on ground. Like to see how it all lines up. Mucho appreciate it bro.

But ya, little skeptical to do arms also. Think I may just get TOO low, for a daily. But have wanted to install drop arms for a minute now. And have had some laying around for a few yrs now. But would like to get some more low on. Guess I could always drop the keys some. But not looking to loose quality over looks. Like best of both ya know. Have been contemplating the body drop, and now with your write up, know exactly what to get if decided to do :Handshake:. But would do rubber, not poly. I know it would be too harsh, and sounds like u think the same.
Can always bea little lower. Juat gotta decide on how to go about it....

Nice Tony. That $hit is LOW! But owe so pretty. See if you can get him to post up pics. Like to see if he had to cut fender wells in front to get it to tuck like that. Almost imagine you would have to, or have very little clearance left. Post up pics if you do another. Always interested to see others setups.

I want to slam er down :headbang: but gotta decide how, and when enough is enough. I know, I know, it's never enough. But don't think being as low as that Denali, will be very comfortable, statically, on some of these AZ roads. Gotta keep it comfortable
