Clutch took a dump

And of course it had to take a dump on the way to work doing absolutely NOTHING.

Oh yeah.. how do you flat bed a lowered TA? VERY VERY carefully.

aww man scared the crap outta me when we had to put my car on a roll back. there was less then a 1/4" between my car and the black top. good luck with that man, always sucks when the car has to be towed home.

That sucks about the clutch. I would never lower a car since it creates too many problems with things like headers, speed bumps, high curbs, snow, flatbeds, towing a boat, harder for old people to get in and out of, etc.

luckily my tips were adjustable, i had to shove them up into the body cutouts to not scrape and there was still less than a 1/4" even with the wood blocks
