    Lowered 3/4, debadged, led tails, projector headlights with hids, billet grill, blacked out windows, painted front and rear bumper and grill shell. Inside, 4 crappy 15's, suede wrapped headliner and door panel inserts, alpine double din, few painted pieces inside, and every led is either blue or white.

    so I had some time today to start installing the parts I've been collecting the past few months

    I put on my clear ebay headlights but used silicone sealer around the cracks just to make sure it won't leak in the future.
    installed front oem x-runner springs and oem x-runner bilstein shocks. lowered it about 1/4'' and the ride is noticeably stiffer.

    btw, rears came to a halt when I found out the u bolts I got with my 4'' blocks were too short :(, so while I had the jack stands on I went and did the DIY Squeaky leafspring mod and cut out some rubber hoses I bought from autozone and sprayed on some lithium grease spray. No more squeeks! As soon as I get the correct u bolts I'll have the rears dropped an inch more.

    My guess would be that your driveshaft is causing that. Just a guess though without being able to see it.
