Here is a photo of the shocks. Supplier made these custom to my exact spec and had them shipped within a week. Im very impressed with the quality at $130 per shock.

Finally getting around to straightening the diff after it warped during welding. Didn’t have issues just want to get back to 0° camber. Will make a YouTube video on the process.
What is your caster reading with the flip?
Some nice welds also.

No longer making a video. This process is far to dangerous If you need a youtube video to do this you shouldnt be doing it. I probably shouldnt be doing this...

Ended up denting the housing during one of my presses (yes i put 1/2" steel plate between bottle jack and housing it and it bent the plate like it was nothing.) Want to give a huge thanks to RAMPT customs I have been getting tech support throughout this entire process. He gave me some tips Im going to have a go again tomorrow.

For those interested, here's a pretty good video of the process. I watched this a while back. Skip to the 40 min mark if you want to see what the bent axle repair looks like.

Got the diff back under the car. Still need to make upper shock plates that arent offset as of right now the bushings are binding bad. Also have to machine a 2nd groove for aisin hubs. The project never ends but this was by far the biggest hurdle.

Ended up loosing some fluid during a fitting adjustment
but I went ahead and opened them to add fluid and wow they are incredibly well built. No plastic whatsoever dual band IFP and the internals looked really solid. I will keep you guys posted on these I’m really excited to see how they drive.
