Default KDM Kia yo

Feel free to let me know if I've done something horribly wrong so I can fix whatever needs attention.
PAINT IS HORRID, I KNOW. Can't wait till everything else is done and I can respray it.

Mostly stock


Hyundai Sonata front struts (strut body a little shorter and more stroke)
Welded up the top hats for an additional 3" of travel
From this

To this


Doing work in my little 20x20 storage facility


All this sitting on my bed


How the new front height sits with the springs compressed to the highest bag height for the bags ordered vs the stock rear height


Test of the rear suspension to see if upper control arms would clear.
They do.




Main issues at the moment are the front upper control arms knock the wheel wells on large bumps, so I either need to cut the frame or shorten a cast knuckle. Front bumper is fucked from PO actions. Will most likely be putting trunk setup together this weekend. My rear struts from a 92 Subaru Loyal (4" shorter) arrived in the mail today and need to be fabricated onto the car. I need more money.
