has anybody installed Jamco lowering suspension?????
I got the 3" lowering kit from them as well however Imnhavig problem with the rear suspension!
The shorter coil is ok BUT the shock that Jamco sent me is literally the same Monroe shock that I had installed previously and it is too long to close the coil, I mean when I'll install it and lower the jack the compressed coil opens up and comes out!
