Rear coil over kit is in...not the car, just the house.
I took my new toy out and looked at it. Nice quality as you would expect from MM.

I think the install will go fairly easy, I'm tempted to say super easy but I know that Murphy is out there somewhere.

The Shocks are on backorder and won't be in until early Nov.

In addition to that, I have lost my key for my locking lugs so I had to order another one. $15 wasted for my rush to clean up, I think I left it on the lugnut after I tightened the lugnuts and lost it somewhere between here and Barbour.

Rear coil over is in.

Easy install, and no problems with the spring compressor this time.

I've just got to adjust the shocks for firmness, raise the front to match the rear height and get an alignment for everything.

Gary when you get it aligned I'd like to take a ride and see how it compares. Thinking about biting the bullit and doing coilovers when I swap in the IRS. Plus with these headers it makes the suspension easier to take apart and assemble when I have a header leak, LOL.

The install went well. The only issue I had with the kit is that MM didn't include the delrin pivot ball that goes on top. Instead I had a set of bump stops included with the kit. The bump stops are not even included in the kit, but they were in a sealed bag with the rest of the parts. I guess something went wrong during the packaging.

Anyway, they sent me a set right out though.
