Bad leaf spring look is bad. I don't care what part of Carolina you are in, this isn't popular unless your a shade or two dark. not to be racist or anything, just true.

As someone who has friends with carolina squat, it usually happens when on fullsize trucks that crank up their torsion bars up without messing with rear suspension or crank up the front past the lift blocks they put in the rear. It typically is not on purpose and gets fixed for the most part

The guy i go to is my like my step dad but the cops around here keep hassling inspectors for any illegal stuff so no other inspectors would sticker it either. Maines just racist against anything thats fun.

We all know that times are hard and sometimes the Jeep funds get a little low and you have to wait on stuff. So that being said, if you're low on $$ and your rears are sagging then you have a good excuse. if you cut your front fenders for clearance and are higher than the rears (even stock) then you have a good excuse. If you lift your rig 4 inches higher in the front and leave the tailpipe draggin on the ground......you might be a redneck.

Not all rednecks are created equal. Nice to know you did your Jeep the correct way.

Default sooooo stupid

Carolina Squat is the dumbest thing that has ever been done to a truck, jeep or suv... They think that it is the biggest thing is sliced bread and are wayyyyyyy to happy about it. I live in the same place that they think that "Carolina squat" originated but I agree with what someone else said, it started on jacked up caprices on 30 inch rims with a pitbull painted on the side of the car!!!!

and what is really amusing other people try and make facebook pages like carolina squat and they delete mutual friends. So if anyone wants to be friends with some SANE people down here in NC be-friend Level'R Out cause they all know how to make a vehicle look good!

kinda funny how these trends come around, i dare say some local kid who was sorta cool decided to make his truck/car whatever look like the 'gasser's' that used to race in the 60's.
but i just dont get this one on trucks etc????
