Your strut bags won't even get you close to rocker or to the part of the fender that you're worried about. If you want to lay out, juice it...

I bagged my pt and unbagged it as it the slammer springs I had on them gave it the same drop without the BS. Looking forward to seeing how this looks when you get done and seeing the modification to the air struts.

even though the kit i ordered you set the ride height yourself? i realize stock struts will keep it from getting low, but i had heard the build it yourself type kit would get pretty low. if it gets me a 5" drop from stock ill be ok. i never expected the hhr to lay out....and im to deep in it to change to juice. where can i find the altima you are talking about?

here is what i got (not all parts are in pic) the strut has threads for adjustment but i didnt come with a nut. Does anyone know if i can tack weld to this strut without damaging it or blowing it up?

started working on the front. thought i would show you some more pics. it got dark before i could get much done. the pics with the wheel on is the tire sitting on plastic inner fender, which hopefully will be ride height. drive shafts dont bind or anything.
