Default Is it possible to lower a 2014 GC
I have a new limited and want to lower it a couple of inches.
Has anyone ever done this? Mine is a limited, so it does not have the manual air height adjustment of the overland.

Thanks!

Go to the hardware store and buy a 16oz roofing hammer. Now start beating yourself in the head with it until you pass out. When you wake up, start beating yourself in the head again.

I think a cute little red Miata is the perfect choice for this guy.

If he wants a rad ride, why buy a jeep? I suppose it takes all kinds. Maybe we should ignore him?

Just get some low profile tires, unless you want to go to hydraulics.

Only to prove he is not worthy of owning a Jeep. It should be taken away from him.

Ah, Busted! Just think of all the fun he'll have being laughed at!

It's like hot-rodding a PT Cruiser, it just shouldn't be done!
