The new springs should be in sometime next week, so I thought I'd photochop the car to see how she might look.

Photo-slammed:


Vogtland springs should give about this much drop:


How she sits now: (Yes... I know...)

SOOOOO Much better, but bewarned Tucson is not nice to lowered vehicles. My last cars undercarriage looked like a gernade had gone off on it.

The funny part of that is I took up the entire street because the battery had died and I couldn't get it started to get back up the driveway and into the garage.

The funnier part is that it died because the the glove box light was on for two weeks.

The even-funnier part is that the glove box latch was broken so I couldn't open the glove box to take the bulb out.

Cool. When are you installing them? Can't wait to see updated pics ... even if they are in the middle of the road! LOL Wink

I'm installing them Saturday. I get anxious/excited about new parts and don't waste any time putting them in. I was tempted to throw the filing cabinet up on jackstands last night and start at it but decided it'd be better if I took my time... Smile

Yeah, pretty close to optimal right now -- I hope it doesn't settle too far! With the wheel all the way turned, there's only a one finger gap between the tire and fender... Anyone have a fender roller?! Very Happy
