I have finished the Lightning Rods install. I added some guages to my A-pillar guage pod, a trans temp and a air/fuel mixture. The interior is done for now.

I have started taking the front end apart to redue everything. I'm already collecting Moog parts.

I took the body off, took me all day to do it by myself. Here are some pics.

I have collected everything I need to do the chassis. I have Eibach springs, new shocks, energy suspension front and rear control arm bushings, body mounts, sway-bar endlinks. Moog balljoints, tie-rods, adjustment sleeves, center-link, idler-arm.

Well I started on the frame as you can see. I think it turned out good so far.
