Project: 1995 Miata

[Jake]

The V-Maxxes (V-Maxxen?) are installed! Very easy install actually. There were four of us there, so we each took a corner and had it all done quickly. No need for spring compressors because we took the entire setup (mount, tophat and all) out and replaced it with new bits.

We slammed it to start off:



Then we raised it up to a good ride height. It's about 12.5" from the middle of the hub to the fender in the front, and 12.75" in the rear. If someone wants to slam it back for pictures, I will give you the tools and you can do it. Wheels gotta come off and the rears are slow going because the sway bar and axle are right there. So I won't do it, but you can! And you can put it back, too







This is center of hub to fender on the front left wheel. The suspension still needs to settle so it may lower itself a little bit...



This is from the ground to the bottom lip. 7" of clearance, maybe a little less. Holding a ruler and a DSLR together is slightly difficult.
