So, I did some work on my solid axle ferd v8 780.
Here's me getting started.

I only ended up doing the suspension bits, didn't have enough time to do the lights, subframe, or the diff.
I was dreading these gland nuts and they did not disappoint... The passenger side came off without a hasstle....driver's side was a royal pain in the arse. Ended up cutting it out. miraculously saved all the threads! The new bilstein gland nut screwed right in.

I got these springs from Alex, but i wasn't able to use them...i didn't feel like fabricating something for the top of the strut so i went with stock tapered spring and sliced 2 coils.

I put this nissan skyline muffler on to see if it was going to sound cool. Turns out it sounds kinda lame. So i took it off.

No pictures of the rears, but i sliced 1.5 coils and it dropped too low. Fished the springs out and found there was a hockey puck spacer up in there. Thankfully i had some 940 sedan springs that were thicker, sliced a single coil and popped them in. It's slightly rakey but i don't mind it.

More updates to come...I have no front swaybar at all, since both endlinks are destroyed. I can't find a new set anywhere so i might be fabbing up my own.
I think i might do the strut tower camber mod as well. I'll sort out the swaybar first and see how i like it from there.
