I didn't see that his springs were removed, and all you said at first was shocks which wouldn't prevent you from using two stands

The axle won't drop any farther then the shocks will go whether they are in or out. The only thing disconnected is the shocks and springs. The driveshaft is still in.
The jack stand under the axle is just keeping it up a little bit over night.

Yeah but without the shocks it's pretty much supported by the control arms and the bushing and drive shaft. But I understand what you're saying. Those dynatrac ball joints are beastly. Did you happen to get the install tools?

What tool? Ball joint press? Yes I have one.

Not the ball joint press. The ones from dynatrac to install the ball joints. They are spacers to prevent damage to the seals on the ball joints

They're special ones specifically from Dynatrac. Some of the ones from the ball joint press don't fit correctly, all depends on the set though.

Yeah. If you do it's only around $12 I believe. And you're some what by Dynatrac aren't you?

Little Dip
Little ghetto, but until I pull the trigger on Evo bumpers this spring, I decided to Plasti Dip the silver parts of the stock bumper that were bugging the hell outta me :icon_crazy:
I also decided to record a POV video of the process in case anyone else would want to do the same, to see how easy it is to do even for a first timer like myself (Never used the stuff before).
One can is plenty to give the front and back 5 coats each. Love the outcome for what it is and love that it's durable, but non-permanent.
Here are pics of it after a week of being in the cold icy weather we've been having here in TX:
Was so happy with the stuff I used the last bit of it to dip the bare aluminum part of my ZX-6R's muffler (stuff is rated for temps above 300' F):
