I got videos of some cars lifting a good 2 feet ... I'll probably get pictures from the video today once I hook it up to my computer at work ...

I am loosening my suspension in the rear to allow it to drop creating better weight transfer. Bump stop will be taken out and a replaced with custom shorter one. I will then drop the shock attatchment 2in. right now it drops and hits the bump stop.

Hawk,
Have you ever thought about front ajustable shocks? Maybe a set that you can adjust to 90/10. You know for weight transfer.

Blah Blah Blah. Yes it will happen in July I just reprogramed the computers I stumbled on another 100+ Hapees. I will put the Hawk on a diet in the nose. which will help weight transfer.
