Pics while removing front coils
I installed the rear ECE 4" lower coils with little to no problems... and then started the installation of the ECE 2.5" drop spindals and 2" GF drop front springs. When I got it all apart I realized I could not put the brand new spindals on the 33 year old control arms. They are at the blaster right now and I am waiting for the new TRW ball joints to arrive along with the new control arm bushings....I'm having the time of my life with this lil' 71'!

Thanks, silver really makes the ugly heater box look pretty good. Hope to see more pics along the way. I'm working on a 72 swb and red is the color for me. Wanted a bright red not a dark or dull red, I think you helped me pick the color .Thanks

I think the pics were taken down because this is a 4, almost 5 month old thread.

I was interested in seeing the pics in this post. I'm removing mine tonight for a little "cut and drop" action. Just temporary until I get my front and rear converted over to 5 lug....
