| Just leave the luguts loose, she will be scraping the ground in no time.................  Tail lights look great, sometimes you see them where they don't really fit with the flow of the body, but those look right on!!

Haha, yeah I figured it would have to come up a little. First bump you hit like that and those fenders are toast.

| Yep, in that pic I didn't have the springs in the tubes. I got them cut today and put back in. Those tires are toast going to put on 195's in the front and 295's in the rear. Darrell I'll let you have all the fun with ground scraping.  I cut about an 1 1/4 out of the tail lights to get them to fit.
