Probably like an inch thick. and my car is lowered prob an inch and a half but soon to be more. (I had to raise it due to my tire size selection) I FINALLY got them to line up by taking off the tie rod end on one of the sides... even with it off it was nearly impossible.

I was so tired of working on my car I just left it on the jack stands.

This install was by far the most pain in the ass for me.

any reason to lower your car more than 1.5 inches?

bumpsteer is just the tip of the whole suspension "gone to blackhole" iceberg

Honestly I never really measured the kit or how high my car is now vs stock. My coilovers were off a spoon race car so I trust them with the height they set them @
