Getting to Erics house and jacking up
Started with the rears :tup:

Old setup which was the blue springs compared to the new ones

Getting down to Business we thought that the new Sleeve was gonna be to tall so we cut it down bout 5 threads

The ground control spacers was to thick for the sleeve to fit over so we trimmed them down

Getting spring and spacer and strut all cleaned up and greasy

Putting L screws into the sleeves

After its all said and dunn put thew spring on and top hat on and she is ready to go

And there she goes

After the rears where done we took a break and Got started on the Fronts

Basically same process as the rears and we ended up with this :hs:

when we put them on and lowered it all the way to the perch i still had a finger gap so u guys no what that means CUT PERCHES!!!!! :tup:

after both of them where finished ended up with this

and in she goes

little pic of are mess

looks good but why arospeed springs?

Em2Allstar · Aug 3, 2010

Looks good

1SickEs1 · Aug 3, 2010

cause of the spring rate its higher then GC's and same exact height as Gc's and the travel is amazing being this low

robbclark1 · Aug 3, 2010

You could have just gotten custom GCs, swift springs, or hypercoils. You just order the height and diameter.

And I don't want to be a buzzkill, but you did this change all with OEM shocks? :nono:

rob, i gave him those, so there were free, and oem shocks work just fine for dailying, oems are shorter and work just as good, he bought some aftermarket kybs, and they were hella tall and stiff and perches were way high, they were fail

OhhBeKay · Aug 3, 2010

their is a little difference between stiff and bouncy though. could be stiff like it hits bumps like a rock, solid, stiff. or bouncy stiff, when you hit tiny bumps and you do bouncy but its not saggy bouncy. sounds like im talking out of my arse, wtf am I sayingggggg lol
