well a small update
passenger door is primered, mirrors, and gas door, back seat is in, and last night i cut the pinch weld off the upper rail, and i gained allot more drop from the bags, pics wont do it justice as how low it really is
the engine cradle is 1/4` from teh ground, once i get a wheel alignment i might get more out of it but its doubtful
well on to the pics

again pics dont do it justice, the tire, is a 1/4`` from the upper rail
tommorrow iam going to install the door, finish the upper rails
enjoy
