---------------------------------------------Originally posted by lilbuddhacant wait to see it finished, looking at the hydroholics kit for my magnum you suggest it?---------------------------------------------

 I wouldn't suggest anything else but Hydroholics. I remember your thread about you being unhappy with air struts, make the switch, you'll never be happier.

The rear upper arm tags the unibody, then after I notch out for that, the half shaft will hit the subframe, so then I have to notch that, and upfront the upper control arm hits, so I'll cut out for that too. Going to get it all dialed in, driving, then I'll start into the notching and stuff.

If anybody is interested in one of these trick setups, installs, or both, please get in touch with me and we'll make it happen!

Well after my little issues, and having no sleep, It's about 90% done. I just have to mount the switches after I build a panel into the radio pocket, and put the interior back in. I'm pretty happy with how low it turned out, but I will be notching it very soon. Heres a teaser picture until I get it all washed and stuff tomorrow. Decided on not running the D'vinci wheels, have someone that might be interested in them, so hopefully they pick them up, and I can get a wheel I actually like.

Definately get some pics of the notching. I am about to do the same and  I would like to see how some other have done it.   So your rear arm is on the body? I think my half shaft is rubbing my subframe as is now.

I want to thank Rudy & Kent for being in the garage with me every night working on this thing. Everything is in, wired, and working. In fact I drove it to work today. The only thing left is building a panel to hold my switch box, and get all of the interior back in it, which is going to take some minor trimming. I think here in the next weekend or two I’ll notch the front and rear to get it a little lower, It’s so close to laying now that it really won’t be all that noticeable. Here is a couple more crappy camera phone pictures @ work this morning. I’ll take some better ones today after work.   I also wanted to say that the install really wasn't all that bad. I highly recommend Hydroholics products to anyone looking for a reliable hydraulic setup. They can help set you up with anything you need. The one pump was a personal preference, It's simple, less parts, and a little diffrent. I've had a couple two pump setups, and a four pump, and so far I like this one the best. I was just aiming to have something for up/down & a little play, nothing crazy anymore, and this was the perfect setup for that. Thanks Derek!
