Look harder. There's several versions. If it's not in the FAQ, it's somewhere in here.

Just take a look at the suspension parts, cut and remove whatever that prevents the wheel hub from being relocated higher.

If you haven't a clue say so if you do know where then copy and paste a short cut. I did read through the FAG and saw nothing about lowering my model saw alot about etiquette and painting but not much if anything on lowering. Thank you for the reply anyway.

Look in the ' How To' section. Maybe this should help you out ( but I can't see the pics)...

Every model is different. You just have to looks at it and see what would be the best way. There is no real way to do it, since every car is different. You just learn over time.

Theres the last truck I lowered, its really not that hard. The part thats a PITA is, if you go TOO low, you have to remove the front fender wells, and cut out the bed to make them fit. For this one, I just put all the suspension together, built the kit completely, minus putting the body on, and then I cut the "hubs" i gues you'd call them, that the rims go on, and basically wedged the rims ABOVE (on tops) of where they are supposed to go, lowered it a good 3-4 "scale" inches. IM me if you need any help. Cjs97Neon or [email protected]
