Rustina 510 Posted September 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 So the wife just text me to let me know my shaft collars have arrived. Just waiting on the bump spacers and the custome balljoint spacers to come in and it's all ready to be put together. Oh and the new inserts too. Quote Link to comment

SR20DETdatsun510 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Dang it! I hate when that happens. Thats why I have it all sent to my work now.... Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Dang it! I hate when that happens. Thats why I have it all sent to my work now.... me too! and its cheaper to ship to a business than a residence because the shipper knows there is a greater chance of delivery the 1st time.

Rustina 510 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 So... After my wife told me she missed the delivery. I called ups and set up for a self pick up out on Swan island. The shaft collars are so cool, tried to get a pic up but my photo bucket isn't working for some reason. I'm totally stoked, I want to put it all together right now but I have to be patient and wait for the bump spacers and the balljoint spacers. Maybe I'll drop the back this weekend and do the front next weekend. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Oh man I'm so excited!!!! 1" or 2" drop in the back? Watcha think Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 1" at most! Judging by your axle to bottom of doors height difference, you are real close to my height. I am not going any lower in the rear yet, I need to first notch the body, or get some traction bars. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 A buddy of mine who cut and welded te fender for me said he can notch the body for me and make it look totally original so it won't affect the seat or the storage area so I think it's going to him tomorrow morning. Then down 2" in the rear and front next weekend Quote Link to comment

Tristin Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hopefully you measured well with a tape measure and they work. Edit: I'm going to tumble them do they will end up a dark grey color, but it will get rid of the burrs and sharp edges. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I'm sure I measured correctly. And if needed I can San them down to fit. Mail them so I can get started Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I texted you for an address... Unless you just want me to label the box 'Rustina' and hope it makes it to you... Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 My welding buddy said he can't make it for a couple weeks so I'll go 1" in the back... For now Quote Link to comment
