UPDATE

So yesterday I received my bushings and helper bags but the company sent the wrong ones. But I couldn't wait and decided to have everything installed and have the bags installed in a couple weeks to see how much of a ride difference they made.

I got my free travel mod done yesterday but I'm not too happy with the out come, the guy I took it to does suspension work on high end cars.I explained to him how other people on this site have done but he said he had a better way.So I let him go to work, come back a couple hours later and the bump stop bracket was removed but the frame was all scratched up. But after We dropped the car today I kinda got over it cause she looks great slammed.

Overall i love how it rides I got every thing aligned am really surprised how comfortable it is and how the car sits.

measurements coming soon.

Nuff talk let's get to some pics!!!

Another member here did a drop, didn't get aligned afterwards, and when his tires wore unevenly he un-blamed himself. :)

Congrats on the purchase, pics when you got 'em. :waytogo:

no problem. From ca to you will take about 6-7 business days. BTW you can cut off the bumpstop brackets now. Its a lot easier before you put the shorter shocks on since gives you more space and if you come ON ANY PROBLEMS or questions while putting the kit in just call me.

btw can you post up your measurements now from ground to fenderlip and what size tires and then we can take after measurements.
