Front Suspension & Brakes -Done

The front got finished today and tomorrow the rear will be finished along with the fuel lines. Monday the exhaust system will hopefully be here and then we can run it, bleed the brakes, torque down the suspension and drive it prior to a re-torque and four wheel alignment.

Slowly but surely.....

Greenie,

Before I even started, I had Tinster approve the colors.

Not really, but I did keep it to a minimum. Black frame, gray chassis parts and a few red items for the brakes. Whatever the stainless parts, new bolts and nuts and cable colors add are because it's the way that they come from the supplier.

I didn't want all black, as stock or too much red. Although the oil pan and driveshaft are red, but you never see them. I originally thought that they would be a bit more silver when I looked at the powder coating charts. Now I'm glad that it didn't work out that way.
