Yeah

Just went to the thread. What's the feedback so far?

All positive as far as I know. Only thing you lose is a little ground clearance and a couple bucks. But all in all it has good reviews.

Thanks...

Yeah...clearance (with the front) is an *issue*..I'm only 1.5 lower in front though. I think the original poster was lower?

^Gabe, seriously? Can you post pics of it? I'm curious.

As for mine, I've had it in ever since, and aside from the occasional scrape on steep speedbumps and such, the bar's been doing great. The only spots even hitting/scraping are the mounting point lips that protrude downward. My bar is still completely intact.

Yeah, the ground clearance in the front can sometimes be a pain. I'm only lowered on Eibach springs and one in awhile I'll scrap it on a speed bump if I don't go straight over it. Then when I took the car to my mechanic for a wheel alignment it actually couldn't clear the ramps on his hydraulic lift. He was driving it up slowly until I heard...BAMMM! And the car bounced back a bit. I don't know what it hit exactly but the bar got dented slightly at the mounting hole. Good thing I didn't damage his lift, haha.

Hey man if he was driving the car onto his lift he should check under the car before hand to make sure everything will clear, I say it would be his fault. But you also wouldn't want to damage a friends expensive lift.

If you're on coils you will not be able to clear speed bumps.

Great product... but not if you are low like i am... my front trd kit lips are only 2" off the ground at the lowest point.

I'm around 1.5" lowered...what do you guys think?

hey ron, measure for us how high the lowest part of your kit is from the ground.

I like to use this measurement..

Distance from edge of front fender (right above the tire) to the center of the wheel (center of wheel cap). You can be very accurate with this and it's very SPECIFIC for comparisons. However, it doesn't take into consideration any mods (exhaust) that may be hanging below the car. For this measurement, Stock is around 15 1/2" and my car is around 14.25". What's your measurement?

Thanks
