Hey guys! Well i finally Frankenlifted her about 3 weeks ago. i was suprised how much dif it looked, as i'm sure most of us are, and the difference in ride quality is amazing! Both me & my mechanic friend thought it would be a rough ride due to the heavier springs but, as you all know, the ride is MUCHO SMOOTHO (limit of my Spanish
) and it just absorbs the bumps & rough terrain.
SO.. . . to make a long story long, we broke the d. side clevis trying to get the strut seated. Yep, you heard me. Fortunately his neighbor's an excellent welder and superglued it back for me. Got the replacement strut mount but won't install til' next weekend.That being said i haven't hammered her yet to break the front end in as so many of you have suggested. So the front is still pretty high, which brings me to the question.
Just yesterday it started squeaking pretty loudly when i turn the wheel a good bit. Don't hear it on long slow turns but definately when making 90o corners. i am wondering if this is bc it's still sitting pretty high and therefore putting too much additional stress on LBJ's? Anyone else had this happen? Thoughts
