South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

Holy SHIT! !!! You guys should see it up here. I have almost 2 feet of snow just from this morning. Visibility up here is 0. Just ran down to the store and back, usually a 20 min round trip, 1 hour and 15 minutes just now. At times the most I could do was 10 or 15 mph at most ! Closed down malls and even Wally World !! There is almost a foot of snow on the main highway !! Nowonder everybody from up here wants to move to S.C. !! You lucky bastards !!!!!

 

You put that shit in already?

 

Haha no it's going to be awhile before that happens . Cus of the DB lift

 

Now the tech tells me i will have clearance issues with the Bilstein 5100 on the 1st notch with 887's. So they decided to but them on the 2nd notch.......not i have a 1.5 inch AAL...and they ask me why its sits funny

tires 285/70r17

 

Yea I need to remove the
front cross member all together lol

 

so the bilstein have notch is the lowest notch is 1st?

 

Yes that's stock ride height

 

Lol I'm not sure yet

 

That's total BS. I hope you didn't let him do that. With 887s and 5100s at 2nd notch(+.85), you will be close to 4" of lift in the front and your CVs won't last very long.

 

Oh I am but I need to find the time now to install it

 

i told them in writing 1st notch....

 

Leave the billies with no preload. The 887s will give you 3" with the struts set on 0. Any higher than that is not good.

Do you have after market UCAs? If not, you'll want them soon.

If they say you'll have clearance issues with 887s and bilsteins at 0, they don't know what they are talking about. Tell them you are okay with that.

 

that is the lowest setting on the coils ring

 

That is a lot of snow! Big storm!

Supposed to be 24* tonight and 22* tomorrow at my house.

 

Yeah I know.

 

5100's with 887 springs are common. With 285's you *may* need a cab mount chop, or some inner fender trimming/ pinch weld mod.

 

I needed a chop. You can run 285s with minimal rubbing, but depending on backspacing, you'll want to chop

 

News just said we are getting 5 to 6 inches an hour !! This sucks !! 3 cars were stuck in the store parking lot and I felt bad because these cars now have nothing you can hook on to due to the low spoilers on them.

 

cab mount chop from relentless already at the house. will work out the details on that later but for the mean time i should clear 285 no problem??? or do i need to adjust the 887 and the 5100's to second notch??

wheels 17x9 6x5.5 4.75 backspace.
