The way it's setup, it would take something crazy to get that spring to actually fall out.

I believe it is if its not then its close. I had a limiting strap break few weeks ago but havent got another yet. That shaft inside the coil is long enough that I believe it wont come out unless it comes unbolted from the bottom.
The Jeep its self is pretty flexy and never had a problem before with coils dropping.

Yeah it does great. I just wish it was a bit lower. Maybe one day Ill put coilovers on the front and raise the rear mounts to get it to sit lower.
They really do fit it way better then the old worn out 40s did.

Well got the Jeep back today. Atlas in brakes 100% finished and fuel cell in (KINDA!!). Pretty pissed off right now over the fuel cell. The guy was told to put the gas cap on the driver side and extended the lines on the pump to reach the bottom of the tank. NEITHER OF THOSE WERE DONE!!!! Who buys a 20gal fuel cell that is twice the depth then doesnt fix the pump so you know you only have 10gal of fuel before you run out. One of the dumbest fucking things ever. Needless to say no one was paid shit and this is gonna be figured out tomorrow... Hopefully. Just goes to show if you want it done how you want it you need to do it yourself.
Other great news because of the pumpkin being pushed over more driver then before the exhaust is now in the way again for the second time. So after everything thing else is done off to an exhaust shop for the exhaust to be custom done for the second time in a year and half. Im leaving all the cats out this time since the jeep wont pass emissions anymore in hopes to gain a tiny bit of power.
Lastly just for laughs here is what my dash will forever look like lit up.

That really sucks to hear they did that to your tank. I hope they fix it for you, but if they don't please don't take it back there 4 other times expecting different results. :crazyeyes:

I hope so to and after cooling down I may just do it myself. I can promise you if it goes back it will definitely only be once. Probably know some thing here in a bit now that Ive cooled down.
Yep it blows. Hopefully it will all be resolved in a bit.
Im sure we can but I was trying to avoid that. I got a feeling i wont be. I figured you would get a laugh out of that. The Jeep is completely open header right now so I decided to start it up for shits a giggles. Not sure if it was the fact that I was in the shop but holy shit I jumped was not expecting that at all.

Well looks like gonna be taking a bit of money for the screw up. He offered to change it back but I dont really feel like leaving the Jeep back up there. I have decided to just leave the tank the direction it is for now and if i cant stand it Ill change it back myself. I also found a thing on pirate about extended the lines on the pump so Im gonna give that a try. If I cant get it figured out Ill just take the pump to someone instead of the whole Jeep. If others are interested in what I found Ill post a link if the admins are ok with it.

No he is not and not to mention those gears that got fucked awhile ago. Basically ended up like 65ish a hr which Id say is not too bad. Plus there some money I owed for fluids.
