I know we talked about helping each other with installs but no thread. Let's make this our official install help request thread. I've already helped a few guys on here and will be helping Naji next sat to install a lot of steeda goodness.


So if you want some local know how request here. We have a ton of good people in the area with lots of know how and tools.

Good idea, I will probably be one of the people needing the help instead of providing the help, but if anyone ever needs and extra set of hands, I will do my best to be available.

Dario,

Since it's partially your fault, you are cordially invited to provide manual labor during the install! :D

At the very least, you can help supervise....... ;)

So after today I will help with anything except for vertical links. Those things can kiss my ass! I can't explain my hate for them in words.

Repeated kicks to the dick don't equate how bad the vert links sucked to install. :eek:

Thanks again to Stephen and Dario for the install help. :cheers:

What problem did you run into? Mine were pretty straight forward..

The problem was that the lower bolt would not align on both sides of the vert link. The first side went relatively easy compared to the second side. A majority of the install time was spent on that part. We both watched the CJPP video and even tried using a pry bar to persuade the parts to line up. It was pretty hopeless. We also tried installing the lower bolt first and then sliding the top into the knuckle. That was also a no-go.

The part finally decided to cooperate when we doused the whole thing in white lithium grease. One thing I noticed was the provided grease was very sticky and felt as though it was hindering more than helping IMHO. The vert links went in last after the other suspension mods. I don't know if it would have made any difference to install them first with all the extra slop already in the rear end. :headbonk::headbonk::headbonk:

Anyone else thinking about doing a leather swap from cloth or just to upgrade factory leather? Maybe we could all meet up and work on it and bang through any issues quicker? Don't know how many ppl in the area have this on their list...
