SWEET!

Talk about a fast pop and drop though! You can charge people for a coaster ride.

Is that going to be the final camber position of the front wheels? I assume not since you don't have the fenders on...

You are correct. Getting the tires to tuck in the fenders is what's going to determine camber angles. Even if there is some neg camber at ride height I'm alright with it. She's done with putting on lots of miles.

Gotta finish up the wiring in the engine bay, put fenders on, adjust camber/toe, bleeds brakes, check fluids, and it willbe time for a test drive!!
