More great work 👍Need to look up Mr. Coates, been a long while since we seen him too. Best days to you and all yours !

Hey man that looks really good so far. I had to laugh a little while you were struggling with those half shafts and replacing the u-joints. I’ve done that job under the car without a lift. I felt your pain.

[@jamesbush268]

You need one of those hat bill lights. They work good.

[@ImpalamansGarage]

I saw one recently and was thinking the same thing!

Alice!

[@richardhackman7274]

I used tye wire and tye wraps to install trailingarms. Not easy

[@ImpalamansGarage]

Indeed it is not!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Was that little coat hanger thing hanging down really the antisway bar? 😅😅
I wonder if assembling that would be easier if you put the half shaft in first?
Do you have another jack and 2x to put under the front end so there is no chance of it tilting when you jack up that spring?
Have a happy holiday and eat a drumstick and some pumpkin pie for me. 😊

[@ImpalamansGarage]

Yeah I have an under car stabilization jack that is tall enough but it wasn't being used! Shame on me.

Ken of Mercedes fame knocked a car off the lift?

[@ImpalamansGarage]

No. Another channel. Waylon Wire.
