The only trade off, is the light green is more durable against scrapes and things.

I gotta cover it with something, so its not gonna kill me lol.

NOT HAVING THIS COLUMN WILL KILL ME THO.


and ocho, I would do that, but I cant even afford the pushbutton starter. Im working today, and selling some mud tires (click here) I found, so I will have the ****er running by monday night. Now i just need that 31" bfg mall terrain and I can finally test this ****er out. I still havent gone "wheelin" with it yet, and I've had it for 5 weeks now LOL <------------going bonkers

Maybe you're not shaking it right...lol

That paint sat for a year, a trip through a paint shaker would help.

picked up some 2" lift coils of CL for $40 tossed them on with my 1.75" spacers. Idk how ill like them tho they are ALOT stiffer than the stockers. not that I care about the ride quality but we will have to wait and see how it flexes.

What all do you think i need to run this height correctly? I plan on getting a rusty's adjustable track bar. I have the shocks already. do you think ill need adjustable LCAs?

Looks ridiculous with the front being so high and the rear not. You might need LCAs, but it's hard to say without getting an alignment(caster is affected by LCAs).

Haha yeah I'm gonna have to get some shackles or build a pack. It's really not that much higher maybe two inches. The slanted drive way and how high the front fenders are cut make it look worse. I'm gonna pull the 1.75 spacers for now and put the .75 stockers in there for now till I can get everything together. Maybe I'll just leave it like that who knows. I need a track bar tho I'm pretty sure that's my one loose component in the front end. Rustys is only 50 more than a stocker so why not.

An yeah the z Is my roommates bat mobile. Flat black 90something 300zx
