SLS to Coil Conversion

Here are some before and after pictures of a D2 that I helped convert from airbags to coils. The owner of this particular D2 will remain nameless. The physical conversion is a lot easier than I expected. I was shocked to find out how little actually held the airbags in place. The coils we installed are OME 762s to go with the 751 front coils.

Me under the truck having a good laugh about converting it to coils.

Disco "WHO"?
Tom just couldn't wait to let you guys know that the supporter of SLS has given up.
To be honest, we guessed it right, only about 1/4" lower in the rear know and it seems to ride pretty well.
I am no longer able to do my own work and Tom and a friend offered to help out, which was greatly appreciated.

As a quick update, especially for any of you that are considering doing a coil conversion, think twice about it. I had a chance to go hit a couple rough roads over the last 2 days and I hate the ride, it is much harsher then when running my 3" SLS set up.
In my case, id made this change because it was cheaper, but beware, you do get what you pay for, fix your SLS, don't dump it.
