Yep, it was his to begin with, but the "upgrading" will be my gift to him for his birthday. He'll hardly recognize it when it's finished!SFC K wrote:This is a really nice build! So did I read that right, your giving this back to your Brother?
I got the rear suspension done tonight. I made a template of the completed right shock tower and carefully duplicated it. When fully compressed, the tires ALMOST touch the shocks/springs. Very close! I must say these 3racing shocks are quite nice for about $20 for a 4-pack. I needed to open up the 2 holes in the pistons and switched to 25-weight oil as they tend to be quite stiff. They're probably perfect out-of-the-box for an on-road/touring car, but too stiff for off-road use.
