Well got home from work just now and the rest of my parts have FINALLY arrived! So the install should be happening this weekend or next for sure!
Not sure how to rotate photos on my phone sorry

Awesome! Did you get a spring compressor yet? I bet you can rent a dial indicator from an auto parts store for checking PTV clearance. Starting to get exciting! Good luck staying focused at work the next few days

.

SolomonAKOO · 06-18-2013, 10:36 AM

I ordered one but it hasn't showed up yet. If its not here by Thursday I might just go get one from the parts store.

thahemp · 06-18-2013, 11:27 AM

I bet it'll make it on time.

litle88 · 06-18-2013, 12:43 PM

Nice spread!

Did you get steel retainers?

litle88 · 06-18-2013, 05:19 PM

Or titanium are good.

thahemp · 06-18-2013, 05:30 PM

Yeah. I think that's one of those things that might be a waste of money though if you're not lightening up other components as well? I haven't decided what i'm gonna order yet.
