i have more pictures, i just havent uploaded yet but this will do for now

also i just ordered some $1200.00 Ridetech Titanium shocks for the rear....when it gets to my shop and i see what i have to do to fab up the front shock mounts....then i will order another set.

so this week the new headlights, tailights, and HOPEFULLY shocks and ground height sensors will be here. Roy should be done with the caddy by tomorrow and then i can start putting the doors back together and get it rolling again! The front shocks will be the only thing holding me back after that. It will take some work to get those things to be proper but i know i can do it...just a matter of parts and some time.

Gonna have to show me what a set of 1200 shocks looks like... I thought you did all the air ride on this?

The air bags were done previously (9 years ago) and while i had it, i replaced everything, all 4 bags, and added another $1500 worth of Air Ride Technologies self leveling ground height sensors & E2 Ecu. The little mini caddy switchbox is cool and all, but this thing has some pretty sophisticated stuff that is hidden. I left the box in it so he can keep some of his oldschool flavor He didnt want to part with it so i tied it in to the rest of the stuff.

Anyway, even with all that work i did to the air ride, I never re did the shocks although i had plans to. The rears are stock and all wore out. The front has NEVER had shocks and makes for a scary ride, from day 1 when FBI did the original install. While Chicken had it for about 8 months (and was slackin' on letting me finish it) two of the sensors got broken. So now we are back on track, paint, rims, and finally getting the suspension fixed once and for all.

here is the shocks - They are $1100 plus tax and shipping so around $1200 - They are double adjustable (rebound and compression). Same ones i have on my Tahoe and they are GREAT.

I have new ride height sensors on the way and i should be able to get it all back in perfect order shortly after i get it back from Roy.
