    Are you going to be able to go low with those tires?

      I will be able to get pretty low as the wheel wells are pretty tall. If I want to get really low I may have to change up the tire size a bit to something a bit shorter and fatter down the road.

        Fender flares are finished up and zip stitched together! I will get them on this weekend so by early next week I will be rolling on my new tires and wheels. Other than getting that done, we are going to start laying out how to modify the front and rear suspension to accept the coilovers so I can get some low.
        Picked this up for a new hood ornament

            Thanks man, I should have another influx of cash here in the next couple weeks so some new tools will be purchased and I am sure that I will get some more stuff for the car.

              No work got done this weekend.....had some family stop by and visit so I had to skip out on getting anything done. Hoping to get my flares bolted on this week and I should be cutting the stock fenders in the next week. I did get the metal ordered to drop the rear coilovers on so that should get done next weekend as well as getting the front coils bolted on.

                Wheels, tires and flares are on.....well kinda, the rears did not work out the way that I had them so they had to be cut up for now to get me by the 5-0, I will be picking up some new flares for the back in the couple days so that everything will look okay. Pics coming soon! Oh and the coilovers that I was told would work, don't. So now I need to sell them and buy the original suspension setup I had planned on.

                  Needs lowered BAD, thinking about cutting a coil or two until I can get all my suspension stuff on. I will grab some more pics once I clean the car up a bit and re-do the rear flares.

                    Not really sure how I missed this.

                    Are you planning on changing the color of those wheels??

                      Yeah, wheel color will change on a regular basis, thinking that before sunday I am going to do them in flat tan to go with the stock color

                          Hmm. Flares are interesting. Jeep?

                          Needs 195/60 and low.

                          Where are the wheels from? I dig em.

                            Yep, they are Jeep flares, the rear ones got pretty messed up but they are like $8 a pair so I am going to hit the junk yard this weekend and grab some new ones. 195/60's are not gonna happen for a long time, the only reason that I would go any narrower is if I start running in to clearance issues once I am dropped but from the testing we did I have a couple inches before the tire hits metal when the car is on the bumpstops. The wheels are from a Wheel Vintiques, I ordered them off Jegs. I don't think that they are OEM on anything but I could be wrong

                                Just got back from a junkyard run, picked up a Volvo snowplow front lip and new flares for the back. By sunday I will have the new flares and the lip on, my steering wheel on and my springs cut as I have the first photoshoot for the car with Always Reckless! Pics to come soon.

                                Found this bracket at the junkyard....it made the trip totally worth it.
                                HAPPY BRACKET!
