Default [AZ] Lowering my '98

I'm ready to get rid of the 4X4 look!! I've read some topics recently that it's pretty easy to do and I'd be willing to do the work if someone who knows how to do it would be willing to show me. Any takers? If not....anyone know where I might find some step-by-step instructions on how to do it? Thanks in advance for any help!! :)

Its pretty simple, there is one bolt at each corner. The front ones need to be tightened, the rear ones loosened.

Here is a thread with pictures of what needs to be done: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=311973

I was able to turn the front bolts without removing the wheels, but it might have been faster to do so. For the rear I removed both wheels and turned them leaving 3 threads showing.
There are some other tricks if you want to go lower than this.

I can help you lower it if you'd like, it takes about an hour.

Its a piece of cake. If you come down here, I'll help you do it. We'll schedule an alignment too. There is a place in Mesa that does a great job for a good price. Network Alignment I think is the name. Let me know and I will get the proper name.
