I just got my GF 1.3"/3" springs installed today. I was driving for a little while when all of the sudden I heard this aweful grinding, something scraping the rotor. It was the backing plate (hack job, I'm kinda pissed about it).

Anyway, I pulled over and was about to jack my car up when I realized that the factory jack doesn't fit under the car anymore. So if you've got 1.3" drop, don't expect to be able to change a flat on the road unless you get a different jack.

I don't think hauling around my hydraulic jack is a viable option...
