On the front went from 1/4 wall to .90 wall & the rear from 1-1/4 to 1-1/8..
Plus were slotted for quick adjustments..

Congrats on the coverage Cris, and Karl. Between you guys and the rest of the JCG crew, and the hot shoe helpers, you have endlessly tuned, refined, and driven that car to becoming something quite special!

Thanks Matt.. The car has come a long way in such a short time... Grateful for Casey being able to get the car tuned for Karl to drive.. Guy Ankeny for shocks & springs.. DSE for putting out a great product for us to work with & Kyle taking my calls to discuss solutions to problems.. Brian Hobough, Mike Maier, Mary Pozzi, Brian Finch, & Karl for all giving us the driving input to to tune the suspension..

We got one more "Hot Shoe" driver that I would value his opinion on how Blu handles.. Looking forward to taking Blu to 10/10th with Danny Popp & Karl getting some road coarse instruction..
