I'm up and leave at 7:30 AM to head out to Jason's house. The drive is approximately one and a half hours, all by myself. Lots of time to daydream.
We start by picking up a CAI from Injen and head back to Jason's house to work on the car. The car is already apart. We start piecing everything together and extracting existing OEM bits that get attached to the shocks.
Jason shows me the part that has the broken bolt. Both the Sparco seats are in on factory sliders and work great. We have lots of other bits that have arrived too. Some photos are shown here.
We have questions about the shocks, cutting the bump stops and whether or not to run the dust covers. After consultation with Dale, we cut the Koni bump stops in half and skip the dust covers on the rear shocks since they don't quite fit. The front OEM bump stops had already disintegrated into nothing.
Daniel and Jason's father comes by to give us a hand and here are some photos of them hard at work.
Jason is also prototyping a top secret product for Koni. Guess it's not so secret any more. Take a look below.
Now lookie here at what we do have done today. Front shocks are in. Rear sway is in. Rear shocks are ready, but waiting to be tack welded. We had to stop with the front rotors because the screws were stripped and we couldn't get them out.
