As expected, JDP delivered. Everything went smoothly. Figured out the main problem with the suspension was that the Pfadt endlinks were failing. My right rear was jacked pretty good and both fronts were starting to go. Looks like I'll be adding the FE4/5 upgrade to the to do list before more power is added. In the meantime I am back to the stock endlinks which unfortunately are a little creaky due to their lack of use over the last several months. They were re-greased and it will only be a matter of time before the grease fully penetrates everything again.
They also figured out the issues with the Spohn trailing arms and they are back on the car again. The del-sphere ends are adjustable and the previous shop didn't how how to properly adjust them. JDP did, and now they work the way they are supposed to.
Big brake kit, stainless lines and DOT 4 fluid was installed. Only thing that really threw us off was the black coating the rotors came with sounded absolutely horrible for the first hundred miles or so while it wore off. I like how they look and how well they stop.
Upper control arms were installed as was the ZL1 fuel pump and new OEM passenger axle. Nothing really to report there.
If you guys are ever looking for a quality shop, JDP is definitely worth the drive. Some of the builds they have there are amazing (including Frankie who is getting ready to be shown at SEMA).
And now a little car-porn (please excuse the dirtyness of the car, it was an 8 hour drive to the shop and I didn't wash it before wrenching began):

Note, this was only a third of their shop. They had 3 more lifts and space for 3 more cars on the other side of the door to the right)
