Looking sweet John! did you take pic's of the KCW beam before you put it in?

No I didn't take pics bro sorry.. It was one of those things once I got going on it, it was tuff to slow down just to eat dinner.... I used my stock trailing arms and stearing box which is about it. The beam is a 4inch no shock tower beam.. Ill get under there later to take some pics.

To me it rides fine.. A little stiff compared to the driving ms daisy stance it had..lol It's not bouncy one bit just to let you know.. Just FYI JBS or Jeff's bug shop will narrow a stock beam,torsions, and rods for 300 bucks... He can also have it done in one day.. I wish I would have know this earlier myself. Hey Ethan if you have time this weekend stop by to pick up this breather. I also have some misc. parts you can go through.

Where's Jeff's bug shop? I don't think I've heard of it before. Anyone use him?

JBS is in Bellaire, near Rice Blvd and Bellaire. Jeff's a cool guy, very old school. World champ VW racer in like '71 I think. Or was it '81? Anyway, he used to race against Gene Berg and all those guys back in the day.
