      • 10 Bolt Install with NEW Suspension!

        Tonight was the night I decided to install the 10 bolt with all of its new suspension parts. Kyle (MP81) came over to lend a hand (Thanks Kyle!!)

        Also, special thanks to tech support (Threehonks, Meissen/Firebirdgirl02, and JoeliusZ28)

        P.S. Brian and Angie - facetime was AWESOME!!

        New parts include:
        1. Freshly painted (POR 15) stock 10 bolt with new gear oil and stainless steel differential cover bolts
        2. Monroe Sensatrac rear shocks
        3. Stock sway bar (painted red) with new MOOG end links... yes I did paint the sleeve red...
        4. New eBay drilled rotors and ceramic pads from brake labs
        5. New Founders poly/poly Lower Control Arms
        6. New Founders poly/poly double adjustable Panhard Bar
        7. Freshly painted brake calipers
        8. Strano Lowering Springs - yes I did tape the bottom coil... didn't want the paint to rub off and rust

        I think that's it... thanks again for all the help Kyle!

        Onto a disgusting amount of pictures...

                      • Thanks everyone!

                        Heading out to the garage in a bit to torque all the bolts to spec - then tearing into the front end

                        List for front end as of now...

                        1. remove brakes - paint calipers red and install new rotors and pads
                        2. remove shocks/springs and install new springs
                        3. paint any brackets that need painting
                        4. maybe paint front sway bar to match rear
