Is this the CPP kit? i just finished up the suspension on our stepside, and those c notches were a *****. The front is much easier, took me about two days, but I didnt work all day on them.

Re: My toy..

You should get some safety glasses brother man

But, yes.. It turned out nicely. I did my first one not too long ago. Definitely a learning experience.
