really wanted to get everything painted before heading out camping this weekend that way this crapy California paint has a few more days to cure

so as of this writing all the suspension parts that are going back on have been painted

we also have the brand new coils now (waiting to be all scratched up, ha ha)

and the rest of the parts are due to arrive next Monday so the day after we return from the lake - Perfect!

Would it be too much to ask for a little tutorial on the coil spring install? I will be doing mine soon and a refresher wouldn't hurt. You probably know something I don't to make this process easier.

how dare you ask me to do what I love, ha ha

on a semi serious note, please check out my first build thread called Restoring Rusty there is a Table of Contents and somewhere's around thread number 2151 I do just that I document how to replace the front coil springs and not get dead!

I offer you a link to what for me starts on page 54 but depending on how many posts your preferences are set to on this forum it may lead you to a different page, but you'll finger it out I'm sure of it

Oh sweet Memory Lane (pronounced: Never Again! ha ha)
