Looks Great!!! I gotta figure out what I'm going to do with the suspension :help: What's involved with dropping a Type2 and what do you sacrifice? I drive this thing around a lot and like to camp, etc. No extreme off roading though. I thought about bagging it but I don't know that I want all the issues that come with that??? What do you guys think?

My personal opinion is either slam it, leave it stock, or raise it. What i mean is I wouldn't do just a mild drop/lift. I would go all the way to the floor or way up in the air. No gray area.

not sure is that makes sense :help:

Check out my thread on the Krustbox, I did lots of research leading up to actually pulling out the torch, if you have any questions just ask :thumbs:
