Crack another dew :tup:

Green caffeine. :rofl2:

Been in contact with SPL today. I kind of surprised them. After talking to them. They ask for measurements and pictures. They got both. The early thinking is that Nissan did a running change somewhere in the model years. SPL is looking at their arms that they have and are doing some measuring. They said that they will take care of me. And make some new bushings. :tup:

The drama continues. :shakes head: Got my new replacement bushings today. They are the correct diameter. BUT are about a 1/4" too short. :mad: So now I have to call them tomorrow again. :mad:

1st pic. The wrong diameter, correct length.

2nd pic. The correct diameter, the wrong length.

3rd pic. The correct length, the wrong diameter.

4th pic. The wrong length, the correct diameter.

5th pic. Reset the calipers to zero on the short bushing.

6th pic. The difference of the 2 bushings.

I can finish this now. :tup: Called SPL when I got home from work. After talking with Turner again. It's ok to use the replacements bushings. So I installed them in the arms. After centering the bushings in the arms. After mearusing the distance. It's less then 1/8". Which is ok.

More pic's.:tup:

Every suspension pivot point now has a SPL bushing in place of the stock rubber ones. :tup:

I love your ingenuity with the different vices to create a press.

:tiphat:
That big C-clamp is a ball joint press. That thing can handle a lot of pressure. It's done 6 sets of ball joints on 3/4 ton Ram 4x4's.

Hey Rusty, sorry to revive an old thread, have you posted a full review anywhere on your full SPL setup since you completed the rear suspension? Apart from adjustability, I wanted to know how the full SPL setup compared to oem in terms of feedback, feel, NVH, etc. Thanks!
