Suspension installations are some of the most fun projects in my opinion. There’s something awesome about grabbing a friend, a bunch of tools, and putting in a hard day of work underneath a truck together. I also appreciate the duality of the install. Sometimes it’s a bit like a mental puzzle, trying to figure out how to wiggle a coil-over out without dropping a three ton vehicle on the floor. At other moments, the whole thing is a physical endeavor; on the last project, I worked up a sweat swinging a dead blow hammer like a kettlebell. I was trying to release a ball joint taper from an upright spindle. I’m just thankful most the the vehicles I get to work on aren’t from the rust belt.
