Wellp, just about wrapped up on the suspension. Not much to see besides the current monster truck fitment on their suggested starting preload. Some notes:
40" breaker bar made the 180deg on the axle bolts pretty easy.
Don't let an ABS wire get caught in a bolt while you're tightening it. You'll have a really bad day.
The whiteline rear endlink instructions don't make sense to me. The instructions say to put the spacers behind the link to reduce preload for the soft setting. But the softer hole is further back, so putting both spacers in front of the link (moving it back) seems to make more sense? Definitely has less tension in "unladen position" this way.

I put the DCC cancelers on the rear of the struts and the front of the shocks. The KW manual says to put them towards the outside of the car but there just isn't clearance between the shock and a +45mm wheel. Hope someone else can share how they routed everything to avoid rubbing through any of the wiring.
Now to fix some leaks/wiring problems, get aligned, re-tune the ECU, and get the LSDs installed over the winter. Should be a pretty awesome spring!
