Put on some boots and stomp on the front end.

That should bring the rear up real good.

Higher in the sense you used isn't correct grammer. Dumbass. :-)

You mean to say "lift" the rear. :-)

OK guys, I think we've beat Juzi down enough. There is a reason people get beat. It's to make them think. It's better to let the mods do the beating. Nobody minds a humorous remark in the middle of a beat down, but don't jump in on the beat-down unless they're asking for it. Especially you SHAUN. It wasn't long ago that you got beat. BitPimps is ready to lay down the law, but we don't do it cause we want to be cool. There's a method to the madness.

Juzi, watch your grammer and think hard about something before you just throw it up here. People can only stick up for you so much when you're putting your foot in your mouth. Higher is not a verb. If it doesn't make sense, ask someone how to say it before you post it. I would recomend putting it in microsoft word and grammer/spell check it. Then copy and paste it on to your post. This isn't a chat room.

We've all had our fun beating you in the past, and I'll have to admit it was very entertaining, but many of us have recieved a beating. Take it to heart and be free.

And as far as your question; Get a peice of plastic. Put a hole in it and place it between the body and the body clip. If you need it RAISED more, then get another piece of plastic and do it again. Play around with this and super glue.

Lol at "highering", but a easy way to do it is what hachi said, using an old bushing.

Yea, a coupla of gen 1 bushings will raise the rear sufficiently. You might need some bigger tires to finish the muscle look though.

Freaking mod editing my post, and like everybody elses.. LOL. Yours makes more sense than mine. Thanks. :-)

no real need for the bushings and stuff, just take the stock tires off, throw some normal low profile tyres (like from the skyline) on the stock rims, then put the camero's stock tyres over them all. This should raise the rear a little and give the rear tyres more meat like a dragster.

I've never tried this btw. Your stock tyres wil become streched and unusable after doing this to be warned. Doubling up tyres normally has that effect.

Hope that helps

Lego tires man, like the ones on viper's brushless Xmod. The body will require a little bit of shaving to fit.
