When I did my MetalCloak control arms I left it on the ground ride height. I did one arm at a time pulling two bolts replaced arm bolts went right back in easily no fighting angles.

We have done a couple of jobs that we no realised would be easier on the ground - if only we lived and learned 🤣 good tip, cheers

how did you account for the longer length needed? Straps?

probably should have waited to torque all the control arm bolts till the jeep was back on the ground. Tightening the bolts with the suspension drooped puts undue strain/bind on the control arm bushings.

Lets see if you get this one Alan - Nath if you missed it (sorry if this is all a repeat) was stuck in Germany all January, went for the week, caught covid - then they changed the immigration requirements etc etc, so took him a couple of weeks to recover (luckily very mild, just a sore throat for a couple of days) and well over a week to escape 🇩🇪 I made you a something or other in our profile (moderator of alike) so wondered if your comments would be as us :) did not mide it it was, but then you would be commenting to yourself 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 We did this one a while ago - and as Nath has only been back a few days, we are painting the heinous cream on the old Panda, but not filming as we have no clue what we are doing! Hope normal service has resumed !! J&N

Now the final part is you seeing a follow up Alan ! Nath is fine - for all the scaremongers, most of it is just the old fashioned common cold - flu kills many an old bugger like me, but always has ! As he was stuck in a room for the month, credit card is in perfect shape - every cloud and all that !! G shackles fitted to Murdock, so need to finish the edit and that one will be up - painting paddy was tough without a booth - everything is covered in clear coat and we had every fan and the door open, but has gone OK - odd Reg hair stuck in the paint, but for a getto job we are pleased !

I did you a long reply a while ago, you never saw :( - the rescue mongeral should have been called "lucky" as Mrs M. is such a "Mum" - if I take him anywhere I just about remember the lead - Mrs. M. daily walks him on the beach, takes a backpack full of "just in case" items, food, treats, chilled (and filtered) water, shit bags, ultra soft wet wipes (yes, she does his shitter after every cork out !!) towel and alike !! But he is called Xavi - after the Spanish midfield maestro, as we were going to live on the Costa del Crime in Marbella - but for whatever reason, ended up here !

I dropped that bolt into the frame rail... 🙈 got it out by taping a magnet to a long zip tie. Took me 3hrs to fish it out. 🤣🤣🤣 one small thing you can add for ride comfort is drop brackets. Those paired with adjustable arms will give you super nice ride. Works kinda like a simulated longarm suspension. Nice video boys!

What a pain, we dropped a nut on the ML, it disappeared, think we were at it for 3 hours - how it landed in the top of the suspension we will never know, or how Nath spotted it, but it would have done some damage ! Considered the drop brackets - that could be on the next round !
