Ok so ever since I put on the 7" wide rear wheels, 5 lug conversion, I rub going around corners and into my driveway. I got these 1" spacers it will give me clearance and it will look better to in my opinion.

Are you planning on running the cups on the rear bags or mounting them straight to the frame?

And so begins the disc brake upgrade. I knocked out the hard stuff first, like installing the rear 1" adapters/spacers ;)

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Looks great Shawn, are you going to install the front bags while you have the front end apart or at a later date.

Well business slowed down enough to get it apart. I wish I had the time to clean and detail like I want to but I will eventually go with tubalur arms so I just don't want to waste the effort :waah:
And yes for some reason the PO cut the bump stop pieces as well as 2 full coils of the stock front springs :crazy: Attachment 1084354 Attachment 1084355 Attachment 1084356 Attachment 1084357 |

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Aired out might not be different if you have 2" blocks but ride height will probably be a inch or two difference. With not having a dm I want to be as low as I possibly can ;)

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Drilling the frame sucks!
I was sick of metal shavings. Ha. I ended up using a 7/8" drill bit for the air fitting hole. I suggest using the hat's first and see how far you get into your c-notch,... especially since you have 2" lowering blocks. Everyone talks about "low" ride heights. And yes,... you can drive it as low as possible. But you will have to air up quite a bit to get the front end back into alignment. Just depends how often you want to replace your front tires. |
Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Unibits are awesome when drilling frame holes.. that may be what you mean? (7/8 bit..) just saying, they are expensive but worth every dime. I have a titanium one thats awesome. One bit did all the holes for my rear PB stuff.
