Sorry if this question gets asked alot. But i have a 98 Se Auto and i want to get rid of the 4x4 look yet be able to make it up the curb and stuff. What all would I need to get it lowered and still have a pretty good ride and some money? Also i still have the Mud flaps on and they are ugly... really ugly. Whats the best way to remove these ? does it leave any residue behind?


Thanks

why are you trying to make it up curbs? also the best way to take off mud flaps would probly be to undo the screws holding them on. it will be dirty behind them but just wash it. as fas as a drop/comfort/prices, research what different people have. illuminas are good struts and there are many opinions on springs, look around

 

send the mudflaps to me if you dont want them.

 

put them on that some sort of toyota 4 runner parked in your driveway

 

Looks like a ford explorer/expedition to me. I just lowered my car with illuminas and the tokico springs. They said it would be 1.5 inch drop but it is definently more then that but oh well im not complaining.

 

I have a '96. I have Tokico Illumina struts, H&R springs, Progress rear sway bar. That's a good basic place to start, in the neighborhood of $800. The drop is moderate and the ride and handling are great. Also replace all your bushings with the Energy Suspension polyurethane ones, makes a world of difference. The mudflaps are only held on by a few screws underneath and are really easy to remove, just take a close look at them and you'll see. Good luck.

 

Why so you can scrap some more while your driving....:stfu:

 

hahaha yea i dont want to mess up my paint this winter

and it's a Toyota Sequoia parked next to me..............

 

hey at least i got the toyota part right

 

Well I have to make it up the drive way... i just dont wanna be like slammed against the ground. And also i dont wanna spend $800
