Got the rock hard in...

Going to leave it raw steel and rub it down with oil daily for the exodus... then when we get back, going to remove it and drop it off to powdercoat...
If anyone has any suggestions on what oil to use to keep steel from rusting, I am willing to hear em.

This was when the cage and tube doors showed up... it was like Christmas in September!

Thank you!
Yeah I know right. Overlooked them for a long time until recently.
Ordered them a few days ago, but won't get them on in time for the big trip... also a little worried about them being welded on and damaging my balljoints but I geuss I'll just take that risk once I get back in October... heard that if a shop welds them on and mess up the balljoints that they should be willing to replace them so might workout either way.

Got the drag link installed... in a flipped fashion. Along with the evo track bar bracket... the pitman arm end was a pain in the ass.

Just gotta torque everything and readjust the track bar

Broke a pickling fork too...

Wife tried tugging on the drag link to help out

I feel your pain. The pitman arm side was a bitch to get off for me when I replaced my links as well.

If they are cautious and take their time with welding those on, it shouldn't affect your balljoints. I had my welded on by a fellow member here and he did a great job. I ended changing them out couple months later but only because they were shot anyway. It's always a good excuse to upgrade to ProSteers.
