Picked up the new coilover brackets from laser today. before driving through cow country (check out that sweet tractor!) to pick up the coilover springs to install on the actual sway a way coilover shocks themselves.


Then Kenny busted out the welder and started laying beads attaching the brackets to the housing.

Yeah, I was originally going to either do the SL and skids or the Calmini kit. Steeevo talked me out of it. He is very convincing...

My wife said I'll have to build some scaffolding around it haha. I've got some in the garage, so why not?

Just dig a big hole and drive on in, you'll be able to reach everything from the edge of the hole.

It's not like you won't be able to drive in and out of big holes once this thing is done, haha. Looks awesome so far, nice progress!
