I tried to leave this one alone since I somehow offended you in your "leveling kit" thread but I'd like to retract post #21 in that thread at this time.

I've never hit the curb with my front wheels unless i was trying, now my rears run over them all the time while taking curves, so I'm not worried. And who drives in peoples yards?

haha 5mph, really? Do you all slow down for speed bumps too? My speedo starts at 10mph, anything under that doesn't count

Dude just use common sense! If you are slamming curbs to the point it's making a loud bang and jolting the suspension you will eventually break, bend our knock something out of wack...

Climb over the curb at your friends house... No use in smashing over it unless urban wheeling is your thing and you don't mind spending $$
