    I was looking at these coilovers. Is that location you mounted the reservor bracket, where they said to mount it?

    Can somebody tell me what the advantage of having a remote reservor is? To me I think the canister and line would be easier to get damaged by rocks and stuff.

    They are bad ass looking but trying to figure out what if any advantages they have over a camburg/SAWS type coilover setup.

    it just holds/cycles more fluid and supposedly stays cooler so you don't lose dampening on extended use and costs more$$

    The bracket that my resi is on has the swaybar relocate plate at the bottom of so its one big piece. As for rocks hitting it i recently went ona trail that had lots of them and no probs i have no issues what so ever with this setup its put in the right place. Lbtaco said what i was going to say on the resi's.

    It's killing me to still have it in pieces. I tore down the passenger side last night. Tomorrow morning I'm dropping off my outer CVs and longer axle shafts so the shop can swap them in. It requires a 20-ton press to remove the old axles from the outer CV joint cages so I'm leaving that to the professionals. :p

    After that's done the reassembly begins!
