After driving around with 3/4 spacer lift and 37’s- finally got a full suspension lift (full evo arms, track bars and coilovers). And then the last couple days i got my 1350 driveshaft and geometry brackets installed- not being super mechanically inclined made this job a total pain… here are some pics to show where it sort of started and where I’m at now. Still hoping the rear coilovers break in a little more because it is sitting a bit higher than I’d personally like and the preload and rear shocks are already backed off as far as possible and still sitting pretty high.

Looks good. You don’t have to be super mechanically inclined, just have fun.

Waiting for the delivery guy to show up with my drag link and tie rod… just praying these things come out easy because I’ve been seeing the posts of people going through hell getting the tie rod ends out.

Finally got it… i struggled a lot because i was too lazy to move the sway bar out of the way to get a good swing of the hammer lol

Looks like my build will not be finished since Gforce Off-road is not giving me the axles and driveshafts i paid for OR my money back. Paid over 20k at the beginning of June and then they closed their shop and will not respond to any of their customers. I’m hearing that dynatrac has told people there were no ongoing orders from Gforce.

What!?? Omg I’m so sorry to hear…really hope you get your money or parts. That’s by no means a small chunk of change.

Wow. That's ridiculous. Can you dispute with your credit card company?

appreciate it. I’ve always wanted tons but was way too much money and finally talked myself into when Dynatrac had their sale going on and only for this to happen😖. Not to mention nearly 5k in wheels/tires i bought that i will have no use for now as well.
