    or you could cut the struts down and use the right inserts? bam you have the height you want with suspension travel and no piece of shit china coilovers.

    The ones hes looking at look pretty much the same as BCs so I'd say they probably come out the same factory

    Quick update.
    Been cleaning up a few things since i can't afford the big stuff yet.
    i took the rear bar off this hagard wagon.


    then cleaned it up and wacked it on. not too shabby!


    didn't like the silver door frames and the old chrome front grill/light surrounds were looking a bit old so i bought some 2k and got my paint on.





    looks pretty good. still have these to go on after i make the mounts for them. always wanted a set


    put some $20 steel roof racks on her today too. weren't a fan of the plastic ones. i'll get pics another time.

    the front end on this is kinda exactly how i want it.


    i'm enjoying the ability to drive this anywhere without a care for potholes or speedbumps but i long for coilovers and fitment! it'll happen soon i hope!

    I would be doing RA65 struts, cut-down tubes, AGX dampers, 7kg springs, and S13 camber-tops.

    do some measuring. how often will you use the height adjustment?
