Charlie69 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 OK Now we expect you to finish it by lets say this weekend! LOL 2 Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Haha, Well the plan for this weekend, is to get the chassis rolling with front and rear suspension, on its custom wheel set up. So we will see how it works, cool part is with coil overs, setting at ride height will be easy. 2 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Looks great Bory. I thought you were using drop spindles? Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Ya I'm checking on that today, figured I'll spend 70 bucks on wrecking yard ones before it's too low on $300 drops, Should know I'm the next hour. Screwed up and didn't grab the spindle nuts at the yard, so I'm waiting on those to set the front on the ground. 3 Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Here we are at ride height, but still too high, so I will be ordering drops. 6 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 At The height above how much travel do you have? Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 Like 2-1/2" Here's how low it's gonna be with drops 2 Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 That is a lot of angle on the upper control arms. 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoney Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 The drops remove that angle, look at the picture above, then raise the rims using drop spindles, that way it keeps the suspension arms in a useable angle 4 Quote Link to comment

mklotz70 Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 This should work better than the one you cut in half. 2 Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 What- you mean this one!? 3 Quote Link to comment
Bory Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 That looks really good BH's thanks so much! J, and S3J- thanks for the props, I had the coils ran all the way down but with 0 weight on it, I couldn't let it relax enough, after the drops get here, and BH's sleeve adjuster, it's going to the alignment shop, to pre build align. 1 Quote Link to comment
