QUOTE (rave2n @ Mar 8, 2010 - 12:26 PM)  I have the sleeve set at 1.5, but it appears much lower, when placing fingers to tire to fender, its 3 fingers width front and back. My 1.5" drop on Sportline springs gives me a comfortable two fingers in front and a tight two in the back fender. Just saying for reference.  -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

So my KYB warranty is good then =) Yea I literally had no idea how low it was, because when you put in the sleeves there is one hell of a gap of where the strut attaches to mount and top of coil cover. |

Thanks alot man! I dont have any body work experience so I am proud of everything I have managed to do , still learning, going to attempt some fiberglassing soon. Kinda scared lol. But thanks for liking it, its been my baby since I was 16, all this was accomplished in only two years by my self with a low paying job and in school full time.
