    Yeah like the picture when I wound up the rear spring perch up because the kit was listed as having just 1.5 inches of lowering at the highest setting and when I bolted everything back together I had the first ever HELLARAKE setup?

    1.5 inches of drop in the front, 2 inches of lift in the back. NICE..

    Well I just checked. I didn't really take any pics. I was preflighting for a party and didn't think much of it. Just tried to knock it out before we left for the party.

    Who said anything about being cold?

    Also does anyone need a methanol safe tank? I've got one already tapped and setup with a fluid level sensor, I'll even throw in the ammo can to mount it in if you want.

    I'm pretty sure it's a 2QT tank. I might have sprung for the 3QT but I have to check the original invoice, still pretty sure it is a 2QT.

    Re: The Build Thread, continued FINALLY

    I was out there... he wasn't cold at all. (Believe me, I asked about fifteen times because I was freezing my @$$ off.) Hans never gets cold. He's going to be one of those 95 year old men you see on the news doing the annual polar bear plunge in the dead of winter, wearing nothing more than a speedo. LOL But that aside, what's wrong with wearing coveralls and mechanix gloves when working on the car?

    It is technically a flight suit. Just a crappy olive drab one. I have a few of the new issued flight suits but didnt feel like whipping one out just yet.

    FYI Greek I wasn't wearing pants under the flightsuit. Just a shirt, flightsuit and mechanix gloves.

    I know, but I personally would only change wheels with the hydraulic jack.
