  1. That's where I store my windshield shade from WeatherTech. ?
  2. So after just short of two months I finally received the rear disc brake spindles from the UK. It was roughly $100 for both the left & the right including the hubs as pictured and then roughly another $100 for shipping to the US from the UK using the third party forwarding service Skypax. So I am $200 into this rear disc brake conversion at this point with the first major piece to the puzzle in hand. I will probably just slowly try to acquire the remaining pieces & parts every few months as time and funds allow...I gave the spindles to a buddy of mine from work that does a lot of auto work himself to see if he could clean them up by media blasting them and maybe powder coat them to match the rest of my flipped rear axle from modyourconnect.
  3. I was also able to find some used rear disc spindles from eBay UK. Unfortunately they are playing ping pong between the seller and the forwarding service that I found to use. Sent to the forwarding service, refused, sent back to the seller, shipped a second time, returned to the seller a second time as being undeliverable...I paid the seller some additional postage to try it a third time after verifying all of the address info was correct - then the mail carriers in the UK went on strike...You really can't make this stuff up...Anyways my original order was back on October 29th and I just got notification today that the item has arrived at the forwarding service and is ready for dispatch to the US...So I guess it should be showing up sometime soon - probably some delay due to the Christmas shipping volume going on around the world at the moment. But no hurry - it's only the first piece of the puzzle at this point...still more to figure out...

  5. I love that guy! I've watched all of his videos!
  6. I just started to install my lowering kit that I purchased from ModYourConnect this past weekend. Still working around a few bugs that I encountered - nothing major - just trying to get what I want out of it...During the process I contacted ModYourConnect to inquire about the rear disc conversion - their reply was that they are just too busy at the moment to worry about figuring that out right now...So for now I am just trying to work the suspension stuff out - I'll worry about the rear disc conversion later - but it still is on my want list for the future. You can see pics of my progress with the suspension install in the gallery...Thanks!
