Yup drive it everyday.

I know the roads like the back of my hand so it's okay, every single bump, hole and uneven piece of road lol.

Fated words my friend, you ever have a crash or prang and these are going to come back and haunt you!!!!

Ahhh don't say that! :lol:

And I have helper springs :D

Wise choice of budget springs, some are smaller than others. As for the notch comment, pics of chassis leg i reckon its notching itself :lol:

Either that or I wouldn't be surprised if it is lowering the diameter of his driveshaft! does sit sweet though

Yeah it notched itself a little bit last year, and now it's back at it again, need to get it notched asap!

Sits well. Mine seems to be cutting it's own notch so just going to leave it to it lol

Cheers.

Probably best to get it notched before you do some damage?

Sounds like he has it all figured out... He is probably hoping the rust gets to it quickly too, as that will speed up the notching process :ninja:

:lol: only the cool kids have a notch 8-)

Seriously my shaft must grind about 10-15mm higher than yours (rim to arch lip) weird.

Get a notch, but don't go lower, it's sat lovely, don't ruin it by trying to be lower

Mine must have grinded itself down to give me a little extra clearance I guess :)

Love smart arse comments like this :lol: I will notch the chassis but it isn't wearing the drive shaft down, only scrubbing on the chassis rail over bumps which will be cut out anyway! It's not constantly rubbing. I've only dropped the front more in the last few weeks. Pretty sure it won't rust through in that time :lol:
