Remove the stabiliser bar. I didn't lower the chassis on mine, I lowered the body on the chassis.

Don't take the stabilizer to lower your car. You'll get horrible handling.... The way to get a "lowered" look of the car is to put another set of rear wheels to replace the front wheels.

Another way is to lower the car is to lower the entire body.... Up to you on how to do that....

you could make a body kit and make the car appear lower with epoxy putty. usually this is available at your lhs.

One way of lowering it is to use a dremel and grind the slots where the chassis tabs go in.... grind them till you get the right height.... the rear is easy, but the front is a bit more tricky... then fill the unwanted gap with putty.....
