I finnaly started my build tonight
Well after about 2 years of waiting and ordering parts here and there I finnaly have everything I need/wanted to be able to install at one time over a long weekend. Tonight I started dissasembaling the rear end, I only got to put about 4 hours in before my pops made me call it a night. But I was able to get it jacked up and on stands(tires on the front still), and pulled the wheels. Then I droped the axel and put it on stands. After that I put on the new rear SS brakeline, and attached it at the hardline but not to the axel yet seeing as Il have to drop it for the spring packs so Ill do that later. Next I attacked the swaybar.....its gone, unbolted it then cut the staps. The big bolts were hard to do with and hand tools so Im letting that go till tomorrow when I can just cut off the perch type thing that is above the bolt(it was a noise thing tonight). I was only able to get 1 shock off tonight with the outcome being 1 bolt came out nice, the other one I broke the nutweld on but was still able to remove the shock. I didnt really get into the other one yet. It seemed as if thos bolts may be a little rounded. Not to bad for noob...huh? I could deffinitly use some help tho.
My build includes:
RE6130
Mopar replacement bolts for all suspention parts grade 8 I think
RE 2 and 4 degree shims
PORC sye
Front DS off a 92 larado being retubed, balanced, & rejointed by SDL in VP I droped it off today
Crager D Window rims 15x8 w/ 4.00 BS
BFG MT/R 31x10.50
If any one is bored feel free to give me a ring Il be working morning till night Fri, Sat, Sun. I hope to get the end done tomorrow along with the sye. Then put the front on jacks and take my measurements with where the front end should be sitting, and give SDL a call. I hope they can pump it out by closeing Fri so I can go to work on Mon. On the bright side the guy phill said it would only take a few hours so it depends on how early I can get the measurements to him. He also said it was possible to turn it back over same day. Please till me if that is a bad idea, if so Il just do the sye and front end and give him a call monday and install it then if worst comes to worst and then go from there. The only thing is I would like to get it done by sat. So I could work out any possible kinks on Sun.....if all goes smooth. Who knows it could happen lol.
Thanks for all the help MWC and
for the info and tips
Im in the NW Subs about a mile from Ohear.
