Alright, here we are again. I am back after a weekend out of town. I purchased parts to build the upper half of my rear suspension last Thursday(I am hoping for them to arrive tomorrow or Tuesday). I also did some measuring, I found out that the coil spring pads are in a perfect position for my frame!

Tonight I moved away from the frame and onto the rear axle(I'm going to try to do all the grinding at one time).



I broke out the torch and started with the driverside upper link bracket. I won't be needing either upper link bracket on my rear suspension. I will have 1 tower in the center of the axle.
Before

After


I am going to have to pull the 3rd to finish cutting and cleaning here


After I finished cutting the upper link brackets off, I had my way with the shock mounts. The factory location is WAY to low for me...I would have destroyed shock after shock if I would have left them in this position.
Before



Final product(at least until I pull the 3rd)
