Well nothing got done. The rebuilding kits are wrong and my expansion tank snapped where the top hose goes on. Some days…….
I bought a spare top to continue the GTBS’ing of my 308. Just painted it yesterday and installed today. Extremely happy with the look! Exactly what I was after. Up next is coil overs from Nick Forza, should lower it an inch, and new wheels in a month or so. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I custom designed a set that look like Dino wheels. More to come on those when they get here. 17”. Think they’ll really look sharp. Nervous to cut side lovers? That’s why I bought a spare set to do it to! Everything I do is reversible of I ever decide to go back. Which I won’t! more to come! Cheers Dave
I installed new coil overs yesterday. Painted the wheels Bronze and thinking of painting the black rocker Bronze to match and tie in the wheels. Love the look!

What model Aldans did you go with? I don't see them on their website. Any modifications to make them work?
I got them from Nick Forza. It’s the ones on their site. Spring rates were 350 rear and 300 front,IIRC. Just some minor radius notching on the front upper arm. I rounded it over, like a semi circle, so it’s not so jagged and I didn’t have to remove as much material as they said to do. I have them set on 3 (6 positions) and it rides nice. Cheers Dave
Very nice....looks like they're double-adjustable for damping? How much weight did you save at each corner? - Dave
Correct Dave. I’m not sure on the weight as I didn’t weigh them compared to the stock Koni coilovers. I’d say only a few pounds, but this wasn’t a big concern of mine. I just wanted to drop the 4x4 look! Cheers Dave
How did you get the correct side windows ? Please let me know. I also bought an extra top and had it painted. Oh , you modded them, my bad. Great job ! Im going to see if I can buy a GTB set, or a GTS set and have a fabricator do the work.
