Well, for one thing I would of thought it would be easier to put the LCA on the car
then put the spindle on rather than trying to do it in the grass. Good luck with updates.

the LCA went on so damn easy..


now.. the rear trailing arm removal for that one ****ing bolt held us up for ever..

PB blaster, a Torch, and then a large irish man beating the living **** out of the hub with a hammer and it finally came loose.


Today is passenger side Struts, Trailing arms, and LCA.

ill post better photos today

Re: Spartan GL's (12/10/11) PG 14 for Suspension photos!

Joey, why'd you decide to bend the brake shield on the right rear? New mod XD?

Looks good man, should be a dream to drive around....Need to take it to Us-129, and do it some justice.

the suspension stuff yes,

my buddy tore a small hole in the Driverside CV axle boot... and it is leaking. so ill replace that when i rip the trans out.
