Its just a air cut off wheel plus I did I good job on those , the fold is another story that was only the second time I had done them before and I still didn't work the way I wanted them too.

No abs saved me from an accident. Every one in front of me slammed because some *** took a turn without signaling. If they wouldnt of locked up that accord wouldve had a bad day. That was the reason I crashed my jetta, they wouldnt lock. But that is by far the hardest ive ever hit my brakes

Amesome Cedro pics... looks like fun.

This weekend I was going to install my Dana 60 front and upgrade the rear gears and brakes, but got talked into wheeling instead.

We are planning a Rio Puerco run Sat 11/30. Meeting at Walgreens, Southern and Unser at 10:00, then to the first trailer parking/air down area right at the start of the dirt around 10:30.

Looks like a good time. I was trying to talk my buddy into going up there but he figured the snow would be too deep. We still hit the Puerco, which was fun, just less snow.

It was definitely a good time. It was verry serene(sp?). Only us and 2 random ATVs out there. It got slick in a few spots, but was really smooth for the most part.

So its like 3am just came in from workin on this thing...all i can say is well i think i got it all figured out but getting everything off was a pain.... so I got the front pretty much done.... coils on, shocks on, adj trac bar on, lca's on, had to cut a bolt on drivers side stock lca, wasnt to hard, then took a few hours to get a bolt of that was on the trac bar mounting bracket..... also stripped out the threads on the bolt and the threaded hole for the pass side coil clip, not sure what thats called so i re-threaded the bolt, and found out the hole was stripped so now i need to go get a new bolt that is a little bigger so it will grip all the way.... would this need to be anything special?....ill get pics in the morning, and didnt figure the quick discos yet.....nooob

That little clip just keeps your coil from moving or falling out if you flexed to much. Any bolt should be strong enough to keep it in place.

The back took me an hour, but I painted the old leafs. So it shouldn't be long. You gonna remove the rear sway bar while you're down there?
