    Spring over... Almost done!

    I think what redrooster means is that the output of the front diff is pointed too steeply skyward, that it looks like the whole axle is "rolled" too much forward. not that the height of the front suspension is off, or too high (whats that???) BTW... Looks nice, make sure you post pics once the...
