      Curious as well. Alignment in the ground would be last for me after new suspension settings and Messing with ride height.

    As weird as it sounds you should get one of those awnings that extend out and put it over top the garage near the bottom of the eaves troff, maybe it will extend enough where it blocks the sun from getting into the garage

    The Z crew all need the same front bumper hint hint Taylor get a bash bar !

  • @T4sho3
    @T4sho3 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Have the exact same setup, keep the rear sway, lose the front sway and keep your angle. You lose a lot of angle when adding the front sway bar as well as the wheel being stiffer when transitioning. Just tighten up the front springs to about 25 (thats what works for me) and you should be fine. This is all my opinion and what works for me

    Passenger side front quarter panel idea. Neon yellow with two thin blue lines going horizontally along the panel. Center of the rim highth. Would be a cool touch I think🤙

  • @bryanmurphy26

    I also had to shorten my tie rods a bit to align after doing gkteck spacers. Plenty of angle with just the spacers though.

    How much does the toe change from full droop to ride height? Setting alignment with the weight off isn't very accurate.

    Add a flapped exhaust vent to your garage door and buy a roll away 1 ton air conditioning unit! Its just as hot and humid here in KY and I have to have AC in the shop to function. A good setup may be $400-500 at most. Consider it a tool or investment.

    @JonasVanHorn 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you're ever having issues stretching tires, try this; Take a 16" bike tube and air it up to cover the distance between the tire and the lip of the wheel, then with either explosives or a cheetah the tire will pop right onto the bead almost every time! the great thing is that it pushes the bike tube over the rim so you can reuse it.

    @4by100 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I saw someone mention it below, but you should always align the car on the ground. The weight of the car affects the alignment. Although I feel like you should know this, so maybe you just forgot?

    • @jaredanthony8070
      @jaredanthony8070 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      fourbyonehundred he works for bc racing. He probably knows what he's doing and doing it that way so that it's easy to do and will be close when it's on the ground. Not perfect but somewhat closer

    • @4by100
      @4by100 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I know he does, which is why I feel like he should know that. I know it'll be pretty close by doing in the air. I also know he sometimes leaves small clips out where we miss him doing things that lead us to criticize him, but aligning a car with the suspension loaded is kind of alignment 101

    @VdubSPAZ 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't think I'm wrong on this you might be partially right on how to do a pre load but you didn't measure how much preload other than by measuring by your hand tightness.... I'm no expert but that just seems off to me.... I'm going with the simple fact that it depends on how tight you feel it or one and how tight you feel it on the other can make a huge difference... The 4 mm thing seems more scientific ... I think you should have to measure how much you thread lock ring up away from a bottom Edge that way both Springs are equally compressed then at a 4 mm preset
