Shocks are relocated up front now....installed...

hahha thanks bro, me too! i cant stop looking at it when im near it also Thanks to Red-Navi for the help yesterday......he stopped by to borrow my recover disc for a mac-mini and ended up staying for a few hours and giving me a hand. He didnt touch the paint, i think he learned his lesson

anyway, one last vid of it rolling in the Cali sun and off to Chicken Hill it went. FYI: Its flat-bedded, rather then driven, because he lives an hour away and i need to follow it in my car.....so i can get home please click this link if you want to leave a comment: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/906-chickens-2002-caddy-the-hoopty-8-18-fi-btl-rockford-fosgate-2-t15k-amps-new-rims-on-page-325/page__st__6620 thanks!!

Shocks arrived this week, i spent the day yesterday installing them. The fronts had to be fabbed up since there isnt a place to put a shock (its bagged). It took a while to make sure that they had the right amount of travel, they dont bind up, and the rim doesnt hit them - but i finally conquered it! The rears were easy, i just had to go to Ace Hardware and get just the right spacers and all new grade 8 bolts to do it properly. anyway, these are double adjustable for rebound and compression....in other words they are really good. So this thing used to have a "death roll" to it. The caddy would only safely drive at full extension, anything lower then that it started to wobble back and forth like you were on a boat in rough seas. Now its perfect! I drove it around and its just the way its supposed to be now! www.Ridetech.com is the company that makes them.

Windows and windshield tinted - if you didnt know by now, it now has 5% all the way around (over factory tint) and 30% on the windshield.

i just realized i never updated this thread with pics of the tintz......so these pics are from BEFORE i did the shocks but only a few days old, and still relevant if you didnt know by now, it now has 5% all the way around (over factory tint) and 30% on the windshield.

install video on the way

TTT - i added 2 pics to the very first post.....i will update this thread when i install them. The front will be tricky but the rear should be cake.

why do you think i only build my own shit and chickens at my shop haha......fuck customers. My "customers" are youtube subscribers and thats all i need LMAO

no doubt! thank Dee he is the one who brought to ya....im just lucky enough to call these people my friends haha - im not sure when psyphs new shit is coming out. SOON i think!

nahhh bro i havent even gotten started compared to some people i know...i have plans and i am booked up till summer, but im trying to get them to come together just right before i take a break. everyones skin is sensitive when there is a cluster of 12 needles diggin' in deep LOL.....actually the single needle hurts way more then the shaders (multi needles). ya bro its much easier on the budget to go 2 hours at a time once every 3 weeks to a month. I have thousands invested in my ink but i would never just drop that kind of cash on one tatt. A little at a time doesnt hurt the pocket as bad. Doesnt SEEM like it anyway

Update.....sat down for a few more hours. Made some progress.

that thing is SUPER SEXY! one question, how do you plan on getting it off the hood of your truck? LOL!

closed. there isnt anything to discuss. Just remove them and all will be fine. Keep them and argue about it and the account will be banned. Thanks!

i agree. if you guys have admin or super mod under your name, remove it please. Its pretty simple and isnt asking too much. Thanks.

thank you and i have had a lot of good help!! Even the captain of the biggest ship cant do it without a good crew!

dont forget you guys told me i could go "CHEAAA or YEEAA" (in my best barry white voice) in the background of one of them! My goal in life is to get my "chea" on a track LMAO

its UP! try that link guys!! full album!

uploading to rapidshare right now Monte..thanks man!

damn, i didnt know that.....ive got the album thru other means and i didnt try those links....at least its easy and fast

word up! all we need now is for Chicken to finish that EPIC CHP mix.....i promise its DOPE! (if you like west coast rap that is)
