Never believe what you see on TV...duh!
My son came to this realization after the second day (part time) installing a flip kit in the rear of his '77 as we hit 40,000lb on a hydraulic press removing leaf spring bushings so he could put in new Energy Systems bushings (which did not fit and had to be modified). This was not the end of it...had to torch the front spring bracket off since the bolt could not be removed. Had extensively modify the shock entensions as well.
I told him that is why it takes them a week to film a show, the shop is never dirty, nobody swears and questions the lineage of the designers or suppliers and nobody ever throws a wrench! It is a fantasy...welcome to the real world baby...LOL!
