I think Im ready to upgrade the rear suspension.

I want to do a 4 link rear, with coil-overs.
I think this will give me a way better ride, and control.
Then some helper bags in the front to give it a bit more tight feeling

Anyone have any information on this? Especially the rear

Please and thank you.

Finally had some time to work on Bluey

I worked on the interior, almost done
Added some 5/8" wafer board to the bottom half of the walls for a more solid base and looks

Still need to add a corner trim, and make some kind of portal window frame on the inside.
Soon I hope

Then to make the ride a bit better, added some air bags to the front
I decided to pull the springs, and put the lines going up, instead of down the way it is recommended. I didnt want to accidently hit something and damage the bags. It was really easy to just pull the bottom A-Arm.

See, the air line coming from the top

Then, finally had the courage to tackle the power steering pump.
Surprisingly, it wasn't too difficult.
Had to pull the upper, and lower shroud to move just a few inches to the left,
Then rented a puller for the pully, and finally was able to remove the pump.
Reverse the process to install.
Works great
