Tedious?  This coming from a person who uses the word twice in a sentence?  I laughed repeatedly...

i have the megan coilovers with the s13 front conversion and they can go pretty low the only downfall is the negative camber in the rear oh and my sig picture is before the coilovers btw

yeah i was going slow because i figured i would scrape something before a got stuck but nope it lifted my wheel up instead i thought my tranny popped out of gear at first lol but i just got extra open diff internal so that means i can weld the one in the car with out worrying

I had the same issue lots of times, once REALLY bad. I was teetering (spelling?) on 2 wheels going up an incline which wasnt even that steep, at an angle. Front tire caught the front fender. Rear right wheel off the ground and front left wheel off the ground. If an lsd was installed, we wouldn't have this issue. Well we would, but we could rip out easier!

that would have been awesome if the car tilted back and trapped your hand, could have been such a cooler story  

i c u breakin' your neck     ;P

yeah scariest thing that has happened to me was because of construction the lanes were uneven and the lane i had to get into was a quick prob 5in slant up and as i got over my frame caught and whipped my car a good 10degrese sideways at 30 mph but my front tires caught just in time for me to correct it or else i would have mowed over a bob's barricade lol i also got stuck once on luck break on a little decline and my front tires were in the air my buddy had to some pull me with his truck lol damn florida construction not caring for lowered cars

yeah I took my S12 in some quad trail to reach a very cool landscape to grab a few pictures for the calendar.

it took me about 30mins and got stuck at least 15times just like it did to you.

I learned the lesson thought and rallyed the car for the way back lol.
But yeah LSD is the way to get rid of this stupid wheel lift issue!

see my build thread!
