Awesome Jude which one did you go with?

I got the performance with gas shocks from cruiser parts. They have a 15% off sale on Iron Man right now. I got the kit for $654. The constant load and performance use the same torsion bars the rear springs are 880 lbs (constant) or 660 lbs (performance) over stock springs. I could have got the foam shocks for $100 more. The gas shock is a good around shock and the foam is geared more for high speed washboard type stuff.

I have 2 1/4 ton & 3 ton jack stands, 6 ton bottle jack and a 2 1/4 ton trolley jack.

I am checking with the tire guys to use their concrete slab.

Need a swivel head wrench for rear shocks.

I will start stocking the mini frig. Any request?

Sounds nice bud, as Paul said soaking all the bolts down ahead of time pays dividends come wrenching day hit those torsion bar bolts good those jokers are long.

22mm

Some posted a regular wrench will work but the flex head type is easier. Some even drilled holes in the floor to get to the nut.

Picked up my stock wheels from Powder Coat Junction. They charged $25 a wheel to sand blast them. I am in for a busy weekend painting them.

Thats not horrible, I'm dropping a few things off to them Monday. They did my front bumper blasting and powder coat and did a good job. I'm looking forward to seeing the transformation after all your work this past month
