umm its a dead axel from a trailor that we shortened. There are no rear breaks it would of been a pain to make it work. for the front suspension im gonna cut all away from above the upper and see how far i can get it to go down with the 18's if it will lay like that then we will work from there. If not then we plan on building upper arms. The cylinders did ride bad on the eclipse but that guy has a civic and i did a civic on cylinders it rode better than any other. the way the eclipse rides now it just needs shocks but he dosnt want to get shocks.
