Those that got coilovers, were those drop shipped like the seats? Missing some stuff from stage 2/3 it's like a box didn't make it in the crate. I'm sure @Lonny and @Adam will sort it out. Just puts a total stop to my get it on the ground plan this weekend.
Also....I must be doing something wrong here....
No way does this fit. I have looked @RichRich and @Lethalcast build threads and theirs dont look like this.
Seated in as far up as it will go.
Check out that pressure up against the tank.

My coilovers were included in the kit.
The coilovers were meant to be shipped. I'm going to figure out what happened tomorrow morning and get it shipped out before noon. I'm sorry it didn't all make it.
I think I missed it because I rushed to get the kit out the day before Thanksgiving instead of the day after Thanksgiving as I had originally planned.
The 135 degree elbow will need to have the ends trimmed back to your liking. As you trim the the toward the throttle body, it will move up and away from the tank. I'll get a photo and measurements tomorrow and share them here.

Thanks, you did rush it out, much appreciated!
I sent you an email, please check that before shipping the coilovers. Thanks Adam.

The offset is normal.

I hate to be that pain in the ass kind of guy, but I see a lot of powder coating on the ground terminal. I'm sure you have cleaned off the threads good. Might consider using a clean nut with a star washer or some other type of grounding washer. Especially with that being the battery to frame connection.
Hopefully it was powder coated with the hardware on the grounding stud.
We stack nuts and washers over the stud so that when it gets powder coated the important surfaces will be clean of powder coat and the external surfaces will match the frame.
The ground strap should go between the two flat washers.

YOU MAY WANT TO DOUBLE CHECK ENGINE MOUNTING HOLES AND SCREWS. THERE ARE MULTIPLE HOLES AND EASY TO USE WRONG HOLES. WILL TAKE SOME PICTURES AND POST WHEN I GET HOME.

Did that, I'm on the rear set. Just need to trim the hose per Adam's response.

Slow weekend for progress, dropped parts off to get powder coated this morning and will have them back this weekend. Should be able to get a good amount done this week before I get that stuff back Friday, on the list:
- Steering column/wheel
- Rear suspension
- Gauge panels buttons
- Brake reservoir components
- Headlights/Tail lights

19mm or 3/4 will take care of the connections to the main chassis and the jam nuts for the small rod ends. 1-1/8 for the large jam nuts, and 15/16 for connecting your control arms to your uprights. It's been awhile too, but I seem to remember a couple of videos being uploaded for Stage 2 assembly, so checking YouTube for front brakes and suspension might be worthwhile.
