Filthy Luker Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 So this Sunday I got together with my friend to work on his sagged R50. He currently has the full AC 3"lift with 1" front coil spacers installed, but the hard wheeling and the weight of his bumpers caused the suspension to give out. The R50 in question is the most awesome and hardest wheeled unibody Pathy around. Everything on it is custom built for real trails and not mallcrawling bling. LOL sageriffic! OMG... Purrddyyy new parts. I wonder how long they'll last this time. :| Truck lifted! Coilover madness ahead. Old coils removed... You can see the custom 1" spacer. Here's the spacer by itself. The pair was cut by a waterjet machine in a machine shop. Spacer on a new coil. Coil installed in the truck. Mmmmmmm .. red! Look how nicely it sits now We like the ground clearance. No more saggy coils! Now it's time to get started on the butt end of things. Lifting up the rear axle and taking off the rear wheels/tires. Spring compressor in place Spring removed. Installing new rear springs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herm Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Nice stuff! Did you replace the AC coils with a new set of AC coils? How long were the first set on there before they sagged? Pezzy will be all over that rear bumper!! Damn I wish you made two of those! m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
