Mk4 Jetta "Build"

[Mk4WiLk01]

made little to no progress today but worked for about 5 hours :screwy:

long story short:

i bought old dampening adjustable air lifts from a dude on vortex who claimed he didnt know how low they went (mistake i guess) and upon installing them and putting the car on the ground i sat at about 24 inces fender to ground, maybe a little higher...unacceptable

decided to run a bag over coil set up until i can buy some fronts that actually go low, but obviously the bags on the air lifts wernt universal so it has taken some cutting and grinding to get everything to work...i keep running into set backs but im trying to stay determined lol

by tomorrow i should have some worth while updates....

heres the low before some cutting was done (polo bushings should be in soon)



thanks for looking!

finally finished assembiling the fronts but still have to address a leak on the passenger side:


got the rears on:


and what every garage should look like when working on cars lol

when i air out my fronts fit better than they used to, and it makes me happy all day

Real nice fitment now, better wheels eventually for sure. But I understand budget wheels, I have knockoff merican wheels as well!

Looks good. As played out as the rims are on mk4 they still look good. You should polish them i think that would look amazing.
