And so it begins...

Let me know and maybe we can set up a Hampton Roads meet for the same day.

I got the sway bars back from the powder coaters and they turned out pretty nice.







Independent 4X greasable sway bar links...



I got the rear end installed with sway bar and end links. I hope to get my axles back tomorrow and finish assembling the rear end. I also got the rear cladding put back on tonight as well.



As with anything Isuzu even their tools are over engineered. I ordered the hub nut socket from PSX and was amazed at how beefy the socket is. It weights 3 pounds!

Unfortunately I have to work fast. I have torn tendons in my left elbow and go under the knife on Nov 23rd. It will be 4 months before I will be able to use my left arm. The VX is going, I hope, to be my transportation while I am out of commission. I hope to get the motor and tranny back next week and build out the front suspension after that. I am running out of time fast.

WOW.....that's about all I can say. It looks fantastic.

Nothing like a little forced motivation to smack you in the bottom! It is looking great tho... the VX, not your bottom. Good call making your down time end up during the cold season too.

I seriously wish I could put as much time into my VX as you do. Hopefully it will look as good as your stuff has turned out too I am very envious of the pace you have been able to maintain on your project. I am also very interested in that paint you are using. I have some rust bullet and POR15 I need to use up, but I think I'm going to look into getting some of the stuff you used too. Looks great!

Here is the web site of Master Seriers Coatings. It works great and has a very reasonable price.
