I dont think those zipties gonna last long

 

haha that was just to hold the spindle from falling outwards. and yea the drivers side fell and pulled the cv apart. i was pissed. lmao

 

looks sweet. cant wait to see it all put together

 

crappy cell pics...

 

hell ya, looks good man!

 

those coils weren't too worn out were they?

 

Looks great.

What are gonna do for bumpstops?

 

i dont know. i just drove up behind the house. my power steering pump was screaming at me for more fluid so i didnt go far. i still have to tweak them today then ill determined how they are...

im not sure. seeing as how we had to cut off those brackets(didnt know i was going to have to do that), ill probably have to weld a new brackets towards the front of the LCA. its ok though. we found out that my bumpstop on the pass side wasnt even on there. haha. who knows how longs its been gone

 

i was gonna say there's a place for a bump stop on the front LCA drop bracket... but thats for RCD.

there's some sweet *** 4" Air bumps for sale on Texas4x4 right now you might as well go all the way pimping out your IFS before you cut it all off.

i set the coilovers at the ride height i wanted(plus a little), and made sure they were level. i got it right on the money. was kinda proud of myself for that one..

then i went cruisin. rides like a caddy. here are some pics of me back in the field by my house...








do coilovers settle any? like, after this morning or setting them will they lower any over the next couple days?

 

Looks awesome! i wanna do this too, just gotta find a deal on the coilovers

 

They'll probably settle a little, mine did. But those are already broke in so it shouldn't be that much.

 

sweet, now don't go falling in love with them and change your mind on that SAS haha

 

yea thats what everyone else has told me. since matt wheeled the crap out of them im willing to bet they wont settle very much

 

You ready to come over to my new house and help me do mine? LOL ERIC LIKEY!!!!

 

no side shots showing no t-bars hanging?

Figured that would be the first

 

haha yea i have one on my phone. give me a minute.


edit:

isnt it awesome??

 

oh yeah, that what it's supposed to look like

 

sexy right?

 

i loved how those things rode! i really miss them.. well kinda

being that i beat the living **** out of those coils.. i don't think they should be settling too much.


do you really wanna do the SAS with leaves now? you should consider coils.

do you want some measurements on those support arm bracket thingies? or do you wanna meet up and take them to make more, and that way you'll have the brackets to0

 

im undecided yet. yet me some good pics of the bracketry and some measurements and ill see if i think i can make them on my own. otherwise, i may just meet up with you and grab them then just make my own bars. where do they bolt to?

 

They have some brackets that mount where the t-bars were and then on the back crossmember. You'll probably have to fab something up on that back crossmember for the bars to mount to.

 

yea thats what i figured. what are they? heims or just bushings?

 

Just bushings.

 

hmm... should be simple enough. ill see if i can fab something up this weekend. one of yall think you can get me a measurement on them? and maybe a pic of the brackets?
