Rocket Man's 02 Denali Build Thread AKA "THE BEAST"

[MadDogDelpho]

Stripped the old paint off with Denatured alcohol and a fine Scotchbrite quick and easy. That makes the old paint literally dissolve while not affecting the wood grain. Painted and ready to install. I think it came out good.

You're welcome. A nice clean interior makes a big difference.

Just wanted to let you know I spoke with Tony about the bushings from DJM and the issue you had. I was concerned about the ones I had just received and asked him if I should be buying new ones as well. He said for you to contact him for new ones free of charge and that DJM does indeed provide Poly Bushings... Not sure how long yours were on or why they failed. Where they an older set before they revised the bushing? 2011?

I bought them through Tony less than a year ago. I already have new bushings though.

Strange... I wonder why they failed so fast. You must drive like I do lmao. I bought the energy suspension ones for cheap insurance as well. They only had the greasable one for the smaller rear bar so one is and one isn't... Oh well. You off work yet installing that Whipple or what man? I sure hope you get some nice weather this weekend, good luck!!!
