I flipped the quad shocks when I had a different set of wheels on it. If I flip them back around the other way, they'll clear. I'm pretty sure that the front bags are bottomed out, but the tires are also squished against the plastic wheelhouses. I also put Steeda X2 balljoints in the front. They give an extra 1/2" drop plus help the geometry at ride height.

What is your opinion on the front tires hitting the wheelwells when aired down. Should I worry about this in the case that I blow a line? A couple of people have told me to put bump stops to keep them from hitting (but then it won't go near as low). If I blow a line, it would tear the hell out the wheelhouse. I can get to the line connection on the bag, so I could replace the line and manually inflate the bag if I absolutely had to.

Oh yeah, the roof is 49" inches off the ground when its layed out.

Later,

Brandon
