The weather was finally out of the 90's so I got to get out and install my washers and F-150 shocks. Now for an alignment.


And I also got to install projector headlights, black bumper lights, and a euro grill (which has no lights in it) in my Focus too.

Old stuff

Nice SVT bumper, euro grill, and ST170s! I love modded wagons. Was it a 5 speed?

Ok here are some pics.

The day i bought it:


In transition. After finding out one of the shackles were broke, (see top one) I bought drop shackles and Explorer leaf and installed them right away.



And finally afterward:


Parts:
Explorer leafs $10 each
Drop shackles $30
Washers $10
F150 shocks $17 each
Alignment $70

Didn't end up being as much of a budget lift as thought it was going to be. Oh well, I'm happy with it.
