Ughhh. Come on guys.
Ride height does not affect this at all. I could be stance bro low and never have this issue, because I drove like a sissy.
No idea exactly when this happened. Hitting a big ledge at 60 feels like **** even hitting bumpstops.

Weight: your guess is as good as mine. Probably ~2300 depending on when I **** last. Not a competition car.
4.25"f 4.5"r
225 rs3v2s
i know if at least 4-5 "oh **** that curb hurt" moments in the past season. Could have come from any of those. I hate ORP in that regard. Dropoffs are steep.

Interesting.
What would be a better option. Trim chassis? Or lower the shock mount.
Trimming the chassis would give me more travel, which according to the top of my fender well I really don't need. But lowering the shock mount without changing ride height would give me a net loss of travel.
