Finally getting things done

greased lightning
Have spent the better part of the summer flipping bikes, so very little time spent on the lightning. After months of guilt im finally making headway.



Got the frame notched, and new upper shock mounts to correct the ridiculous horizontal condition.



I removed the slapper bar and two half leaves to approximate my new ride height and have decided I need to move the shackles down a hole or put the stock ones back in, but current ride height is pretty damn close. Have started mounting a panhard.



Still need to install my brake bias valve and replace all the lines. Also still need to mount the long bars. And for God's sake I desperately need to buff the $h8t out of my poor truck.



Here's a pic of current height and one of the APE I've been riding for the month.

Truck has been inoperable so long I've almost forgotten how to drive on four wheels

Thanks. I bought some from a member, and believe they are custom because one end is a static sleeve with a bushing and the other end is an adjustable heim joint. For the life of me i cant remember who i bought them from.
 
Teaser. Air chizel went through that cheap factory plate like butter

I'm surprised I have the same drop up front and your truck seems lower to me
