The latest toys to arrive. One of the key components left, Ground Control "Track/School" Coilover Kit. Discounting the 2 weeks they spent being shipped to and from California the turn around time was a little less than 2.5 weeks. Not great but at least they are here and look good. Spent the extra $180 to have GC modify the strut housings (weld around the base of the tube, gusset the knuckle to the tube, shorten them, weld on the new collar and powder coat them); it was well worth the cash as they look brand new. Running on 525 lb front springs and 700 lb rears (around 450 lb effective due to the trailing arm setup).
The fact that everything came already assembled and the shocks adjusted the install went pretty smoothly. Like normal the hardest part was ripping the old shit out.
