Couple shots of the latest crap going on. 5/7 drop :)
Went with Hotchkis 3inch drop coils, doestech shocks, 2"McGaughy's drop sprindles.. For the rear, DJM flip, cnotch, shock extenders and such. Also doestech drop shocks. shackles and hangers for leveling if needed.


Notice the sexy window tint on the fronts. finally got that done, looks soo much better then the sig picture i have

The thing on the roof, is my headliner i did in black suede, just covered in garbage bags to keep the dust and shit out haha



Put all new ball joints in while i was at it. I dont need to be taking this crap off any time soon. Thinking about tie rods as well. I have sway bar bushings and end links that are new. new KYB steering stabilizer bar.
Russel Stainless brake lines going in for the 2 front lines and 1 rear.
Powerslot rotors and Hawk pads going in as welll
Rolled the front fender lips while i had everything off here as well. again no need to cut up my tire or something stupid.

Rusty pieces of shit right here. bolts were rusted shut, didnt need the Ubolts anyways


Getting ready to pull the shafts out to do the SSBC drum to disc conversion. Need to get some new rotors for that and brackets.

Cnotch was done a long time ago, so thats good.. idk anything else im missing? besides the end pictures

haha yea i have a bunch of shit going on to say the least. lol

Its in my shop, its called a scissor lift. Kinda like those driveable things you can go up and down with to change lights and crap with

I bought it from my brother, its great for doing suspension, body work, etc etc. lol i love em since there cheap, easy to fix if anything happens and you can move it around to where ever you want :) haha You could use it in your garage as long as you can go up high enough without hitting the ceiling.

Probably go up maybe 3to4 feet??

You always have to match the box to your truck. its only cool if you do lol

The lower ball joints were a ***** to get out. Uppers were never replaced, they were right still, but idk figured while im in there, better off doing it now. 90,000 miles on all the front suspension crap, was due for a change..

When i pulled out the old shocks, i have bilsteins up front, were those stock?

havent had too much time to work on the hoe. but the front is almost done (need to put in the sway bar). decided im going to wait until these pads and rotors are gone until i go with some better ones.




Idk if these things will tuck for suspension travel, its hard to see but the fenders are rolled and good to go there, the tires are shot so idc if they get scraped up.
