Default Lowering???

Tried searching the forum for posts on lowering, did not get as many hits as I had hoped for. I remember seeing a post some time ago that had several pics (front & rear). Can someone provide a link or pics?

For those that are not mechanically inclined...can someone step through the process?

Also read a thread that mentioned leaving two threads...is that front and rear?

Thx

C6 Fever,

You'll give up some ride if you lower it. But it's all relative. Mine is lowered to the max on the stock bolts. Like the look enough to give up some of the ride. But I have the adjustable shocks so that helps a lot.

Lower it, you'll like the look.

later,
