Default Slammed WK?!

Not exactly....


I hated the monster truck look with the frame hanging down. So I went ahead and lowered the WK body mount setup ... again. now it almost looks realistic from the side ... other than it looks liek a truck with a 4" lift running 52" tires.


Anyway, there are some good before & after pictures in here for yall to check out:

Let me know what yall think.

Definitely looks better than stock. Good thinking. How's the tire/body clearance now?

More trimming of the red body was needed than what is shown in the pic. f I ran stock WK shocks as a droop only setup it would be fine as pictured.

The WK body actually fit as pictured without any more trimming.




Thanks phase
