I like that drop it looks really nice. Also what does wrapping the springs do.

Apparently during the full compresson the springs sometimes have a tendancey to make an odd noise, so the wrapping will prevent any funny noises.
So far so good

What is the wrap that you got from Home Depot? I am curious, because I will probably have to get some of my own.

Drop looks good, as do the wheels/tires. I like the setup you have. Keep up the good work.

It apparently prevents any fubky noises coming from the suspension. So far so good!!

Dayum looks good - I have that same setup sitting in my closet right now, waiting for a sunny weekend to install. How was the installation process? Any problems or major quirks I should know about?

Instalation was problem free actually. I have the kind of luck the never lets me get away with anything, but for some strange reason this instal was as smooth as silk. Sorry I can' give you any useful pointers...Good luck, I think you will like the set up.

Cheers
