Well, springs are on. Feels pretty good on a hot lap. Definitely an improvement.

The long travel bypass shocks are going to go on the Joop. The (low budget) ultra 4 car lol.I vote for setting those shocks aside and using a set of 4.0 and triple tube bypasses. I'll supply winning lotto numbers too.

I wish I was in a position to find us more free Bilsteins!
Happy to see the a/c is still cold as ice!
DAMN I’m jealous of that.
Is it oem ac?
Is it oem ac?
Yeah, all stock parts. I can’t remember what orifice tube I have in it. I’ve played with white blue and the expensive variable one. I wanna say just white. Parallel flow condenser and 134a. I have two huge 15” dual electric fans that helps a lot I think. Plus I had just started it up so no heat built up in the system yet.
Well done.
Thanks!
That's working almost too well. Gonna have to watch it for ice build up. Nice job!
Next time I'm on a trail with you at Blazer Bash I'm gonna hang out in your rig whenever we're stopped....

A gift!
Whats the gift
New soft top!
I was squinting at that wondering if that was it, but your stuff is always so clean I couldn't tell. Gotta love the new soft top smell.
Well thanks, but yeah the old soft top has been baking in the desert sun for about seven years and I never did anything to take care of it. The top itself was still intact although stiff and shrunk a tiny bit, but the stitching was all but gone. I poked my fingers through the seam last year at bb when I was putting back on.
