ORD bilsteins

[TJ1978]

Front installed...
Used my jack to collapse the shock so I could get it flush to the axle mounts and get the screw in....
Anyway.. it’s done.
Can’t wait to drive them. Fix the 203 front spline leak and get it going.

Do you do anything to the boot to help is slide better, or does it matter?

Let me know how it rides. I'm getting real anxious to get mine done. Now that I can get my u-bolts to fit I just need a drag link to finish this truck up and drive it.

I’m working on the 203 front output leak tomorrow, goob it up and hopefully it stops leaking.

I was very tempted when rattle canning the shocks mounts to do the entire axle.... hmm..
Maybe I will

I think I posted in another thread to you.
But anyway. The shocks ride great. I really dig the feel.
Granted the Ranchos were like driving a water bed. But the bilsteins are a significant upgrade. Im glad I went with the ORD valves shocks.

Awesome. I can't wait. First I gotta remount them because I mounted the fronts on the rear. Doh!!!
