Re: Project Ssybil Begins

Moved to the rear suspension, the leaf springs are on backorder until February, but I went ahead and installed the lowering brackets and shocks. It went about as well as I would expect. She fought me every step of the way. The new brackets were about 1/4" wider than the old ones, so I had to trim the pins and grind down the bushing to get them to fit. I had to do the same thing to the shock bases. About the time I finished that up, the new brake calipers showed up, and they slid into place like a dream. They sure are purdy, too . I'm dying to get them bled and test the whole thing, but I'm still waiting on the extended brake lines to show up. I couldn't resist putting her back on the ground though to check the new stance. Very pleased! Once the rear springs get here, I think she'll be perfect .
