    So we've got a camping trip the weekend of the 25th I forgot about. Looks like I may have to either wait until September to do my front coil replacement. Or, try to do it before hand sometime.

    Looks like we will be in town. We weren't sure whether to camp this weekend, but that'd be another 3 straight weekends of camping and not sure I wanna go longer without installing my stuff. I'm way too ancy! You have a place picked out to work on it? I could probably host.

    I'm also re-thinking painting the coils and maybe powder coating them instead. That'd probably hold up better. Not sure how much that would cost though.

    Did you decide not to do this? Powder coating takes a few days to get done. I got my dirtbike bar powder coated and it was $65 I think. I am not suprerimpressed with the quality either. Took it to the one in Anchorage. The one in wasilla is the one to go to I hear.

    Yea. There's a body shop across the street from us and that's who he recommended. Quoted me $30/spring. He said he could possibly get it done in two days, but wasn't sure. I'm so pissed because I was JUST in the valley yesterday. I hadn't even thought about powdercoating holding up better than paint until last night. Ugh. I saw one member on here do the same thing and the white springs look awesome. If I can't get it done, might have to just try and get my mod day in some evening during the week. Idk.
