My P5 build thread...

a few pics after the install... after driving on these for 2 days, I am VERY impressed! coilovers are quiet, valving actually matches the spring rates and are night and day to the Godspeeds i previously had! i will have the standard YellowSpeeds for sale (camber plates front & pillow balls in rear) for $935 shipped in 48 states on here and Facebook forums via my website very soon! Need to pay for vendor status on here first!

neat. i'm not in the market for coilovers but what spring rate do they come with and can you get different ones at the time of purchase?
 
honestly, i didnt even think to ask about the spring rates... car rides AMAZINGLY though!

custom spring rates are available if you really want them... they will need to be setup with me prior to ordering.
 
Got my roof rack delete rails installed!!! So happy to be rid of that busted up roof rack! I'll post pics tomorrow ;) also tightened up my YellowSpeed spring perches since the springs have finally set themselves. Adjusted the front drivers side sway bar link as well, was half inch off from the pass side (same with the coilover height). Cannot wait to sand down my roof and wrap it matte black now... Gonna look amazeballs!
 
The Battlewagon officially has wheels!!! :D Still need to drop it another 1/2" and get an aligment, but the biggest part of the journey is over ;)

installed a new passenger side rear caliper + new rear brake pads on both sides. ordered brand new front lower control arms, tie rod ends, megan rear links (all 3 sets) and some spline based locking lug nuts (theft aversion). cant wait to get everything installed so i can get rid of the clunking in my front end due to worn out bushings/ball joints and actually get my car fully aligned properly!!!

also planning on sanding the roof and wrapping it matte black soon! :D
 
was already planning on dropping out the entire rear subframe to put the rods in... did the research already ;) found the same thread you posted! but good looking out sir... its much appreciated :D
 
Brand new OE front lower control arms + tie rod ends and Megan Racing rear adjustable arms showed up today! Cant wait to get everything in the car so I can get rid of all the clunk in ALL 4 corners due to worn out factory bushings and ball joints! Cannot wait to get all of these in the car and actually be able to align the stupid thing myself!!!
