Graphite Rebuild (No Restore)
Graphite Rebuild (No Restore)
I had a graphite car that just needed some cleaning. this had a truck shocks on it so they stayed on it.
It started as just fix the front kickup, it became delaminated and was worn out. I eneded up tearing it down and replacing all the hardware and bearings.

The front end reminds me of the handlebars on a chopper. Cleaned up real nice.

The shock tower was in the box, it is a truck tower and kept it on it.
