I wish I could perform some of the things you have done and had your skill set.
My bodywork is far from perfect and the pictures make it look better than it is!
That being said I have many hours of blocking down both sides of my car ahead of me but it will be with it totally assembled!

Hey Tav, Ended up getting them done at American Spring Distributors in Knoxville. I told them that I wanted them T/A Spec and they re-arched them and added a leaf. They also installed the front and rear bushings and painted them. Their service includes one free "adjustment". If the car does not sit the way I expect or want it to sit, I can take the springs back to them and they will adjust them at no charge. How is your car coming along? Looking for some updates..

Because I like for things to be absolutely perfect, I can be a hard person to please. That being said, It turned out pretty well. It looks nice. Right now, my biggest problem is that the garage is a wreck. With the unseasonally warm weather, I have bee cleaning and painting things like crazy. They are spread out all over the garage and I have to get them put back together and put away before the car gets back. Right now, there is no place for the car to go.

I haven't done much with my Challenger at all this year. I got engaged in January, and married in June. I've been working on my daily driver instead, new paint, interior, and some upgrades. I'm planning on buying a bigger house in December. I'm looking forward to having some extra garage space and a garage with at least 4 walls. here's where I'm at now. I have a project thread, but haven't updated it in a LONG time.

Hope everyone has a great Christmas.
