I was finally able to start the front suspension. It took forever to get all of those damn measurements done. I did the DSE coilover conversion with a twist. I set the mounting holes at the Guldstand location. You can see the differance between the Guldstand and DSE location in the pic of the jigs. I was hoping to be able to turn the shock over to be able to change the ride height easier. However, the upper shock bracket was to close to the sping and I could not make it work. Oh well.

Just wanted to post my latest. I am using a mock up axle in the rear to help with the measurements for the three link. Sort of the way it was done on the Mule. I am pretty sure that will be the ride height in the rear. Those 600# springs in the front sure do not move much without any weight in the up there. I must put some weight on there.

When I ordered my rear rims I put the BS where I wanted it and would modify the axle housing as needed. I got lucky as the housing is only 1/16 wider than the width I decided on for the mock up axle.

It felt good to finally roll it out of the garage for a while. I needed to clean under the car anyway.

Looks good, Brian! Those 315s look killer out back. I wish mine was still rolling...
