Droping it like it's hot!

Boosted · 08-01-2006, 08:47 AM

I bought the Bell Tech 2/3 kit for my SSR and it is being installed in the am. The 3" rear is not going to be enough for me so I am getting the truck leveled out.. I just cannot handle the big rake it has.

The front of the truck at stock hight is 28 3/4" to the bottom of the fender lip. The rear of truck measured 31". I am ok with a 1" diffrence.

front should be 26 3/4
rear should be 28" after the drop. So I think another inch should do the trick...

Here is a picture now of it.. And I will take one tomorrow after it gets done from the alignment shop.

I'd only do it if it came equipped with the 2SS (M-60 .30 cal) or 3SS (M2 .50 cal) packages.

That is pretty strange for Fed Ex to screw up like that...I've had nothing but good luck with them.

Now, UPS is a different story...They are called "OOPS" for a reason!

dfriz · 08-04-2006, 11:50 AM

I drive for UPS

ggoat!!! · 08-04-2006, 11:52 AM

You need a brown SSR!

Boosted · 08-04-2006, 11:55 AM

I will require UPS for all future shipments... If I have to pay the shipping why shouldn't I get to pick?

Maybe they will be here today even though it does not say out for delivery like UPS does and they show up at my door at 3:30 pm give or take 10 minutes everytime.....

Where is the brown truck when you need one.. I do have an Idea though... Fed Ex can just get UPS to deliver everything for them so there customer Service rating will go up..

See other threads where UPS got the item there on time, but it was damaged!

So now you have to pick....there late or there on time damaged
