Love the fact that you never half ass anything, everything ALWAYS looks clean and well thought out, never thrown together. Your "making it work" looks better than most people's "neurotically planned out for weeks".

thanks man although i have to admit, i was neurotically thinking about how i was gonna make it work for weeks......but when i put on my work shoes and started working, i did it 100% different than i planned (in my head). All the sudden this idea popped up and it was going to be easier :D

thanks bro!!

"The worst" is that nobody will really see all the hard work you have put in the suspension work except Caddy going up and down.. lol

the story of my life bro.

most of my best work on a lot of my projects never gets seen because it is under something else. Oh well at least i know subconsciously that i did it right even if nobody know's :D

Man that looks like a good bit of work, but I bet that is NICE having a lift! I've replaced transmissions and engines on gravel with a floor jack and plywood so I understand the struggle and its very real. haha

Clean work as always though man, looks really well thought out. I need to get me one of those torches... B)

hey bro, if you know me, i was NEVER handed anything, not even my lift. I spent 25 years on my back, in the gutter, under jacks and jack stands. And get this, ive only owned a real floor jack since like the year 2000 maybe a little earlier than that but not much earlier haha. I have changed trannys using scissor jacks, on my back, in the street more than a few times. I remember having like 5 of them because i hit up the local "pick and pull" and scored some from the wrecking yard. I thought i was rich because i had extra STOCK scissor jacks from those boneyard cars to get my job done.

even my very first car blew the tranny and knowing NOTHING i changed it out in the street. Pops didn't want no oil on his driveway. Yes, at 16 i was swapping tranny's and even my engine. It was either that or i had no ride. Nobody gave me shit. :D I learned though....kids nowadays (i admit, even mine) get to call AAA and have pops help them get it fixed. It's ok i feel like i sacrificed so my kids don't have to suffer like i did. I don't spoil them, i teach them.....but they still got it way easier.
