Got a bit farther on my LS's front end. Had to trim the dust shields on the Blazer hubs for the LCA to clear with the tall lower ball joints, as per the instructions. Next step is getting the brake hoses/calipers on this weekend hopefully.

Looking good Paul. Just one question, and I know this will sound like a dumb question, but what do the new upper A-arms do for the car, other then look cool (which they do :) )

They are fully adjustable so there really isn't a need to remove/put in shims. Plus it can be adjusted for more than just shims allow.

Today I put on the calipers/pads and new hoses. Really don't want to do the brake bleeding but theres no skipping it ;). Might have to adjust the passenger side pads/caliper, for some reason it doesn't seem quite right compared to the drivers side.
