This has been an extremely long week and I apologize for not reporting on our projects. We got slammed on Friday and the parking lot is full of projects. Pics will be coming very soon, possibly tonight.

Monday consisted of Chris working on Eli's YJ. Focus was on getting the rear pinion angle better with a motor mount lift, removing the old spring perches and rotating the pinion up. This Jeep is on 11" of suspension lift and 40" tires. Ted worked on John's Tundra with Chris, diagnosing a blown intermediate housing that stripped the splines on the transmission output and the t-case input.

Tuesday, Ted and I got here at 8AM and worked till 1AM wednesday morning on a Carli 3.0 desert suspension on Tori and William's 2006 diesel Megacab. This kit is the most intense bolt on suspension worthy of running class 8 stock in any of the racing sanctioning bodies. A full write up with pics will be in the tech section of the forum. We got everything on the truck so they could drive home... front chromo heimed arms, progressive coils, billet aluminum shock towers, 3" King shocks and air bumps, bilstein stabalizers, 08 crossover steering, heimed swaybar links, rear Deaver springs, a long travel air bag suspension, 3" king reservoir shocks, air bumps with a heimed crossmember.

Wednesday needless to say, we were pretty cooked. Ted charged Henry's 4runner AC while Chris began designing an aluminum floor cover to protect the shock cradle that goes through the rear floor from our previous triangulated 4 link set up. Chris moved on to hand making track bar brackets for Eli's Jeep. Ted set up Jason Hall's front D60 with a detroit and 4.56's in a stretched early Bronco. I caught up on paperwork and phone calls.

Today, Ted and Chris knocked out the chromo ball joint upgrade on Tori and William's Megacab. There were a few things that we didn't have time to do on Tuesday... airing up the air bumps, adding the second Bilstein steering stabalizer, the front D60 diff guard, limiting straps and front air bump pads, and upper shock engine cage.

Tomorrow we will be doing rear brakes on Ian's 77 Cherokee Chief, finshing up a trackbar crossmember, brakes, and shocks on Eli's YJ, warranty work on Andrew's XJ that we installed a Clayton longarm, and making a plan of action for some tube work on John's Jeepspeed XJ project. Lots to do...
